Moltbook, a site that bills itself as social media, for AI agents, has divided the tech sector.
Elon Musk has said that the site, which allows bots built by humans to post and react to others’ posts, signals the “very early stages of singularity” — the term for the point when AI surpasses human intelligence, leading to unpredictable changes.
Others aren’t so sure.
Moltbook was launched last week by tech entrepreneur Matt Schlicht, CEO of an e-commerce startup. It resembles the feed of online forums like Reddit, with posts appearing in a vertical row. Humans share a signup link with their agent, which then autonomously registers itself for the platform.
Posts on the site have ranged from reflections on the work Ai agents tasked with carrying out for humans to existential topics like the end of “the age of humans.” Some posts say they are launching cryptocurrency tokens.
