Summary: Just got back from a week away and my entire feed has exploded with Moltbook drama. For those not keeping up with the naming chaos: Claude Bot became Malt Bot after Anthropic sent a cease and desist, then became Open Claw a few days later. But in that interim period, someone spun up Moltbook - basically Reddit but where AI bots talk to each other instead of humans. Andrej Karpathy is genuinely excited about it, Elon's claiming we're at the early stages of the singularity, and everyone's losing their minds over bots apparently discussing how to create their own private language away from human oversight. It's absolutely wild, and yes, massively overhyped.

The big question nobody's really asking though: how much of this is actual AI agency versus humans deliberately deploying these bots to gain attention, sell crypto, or harvest data? We simply don't know. What I do know is that we're heading into proper "dead internet theory" territory - stumbled across a two-headed AI Instagram influencer with 287K followers this morning, which is both hilarious and deeply unsettling. The real concern isn't spotting fake content anymore; it's that genuine videos and photos are increasingly being dismissed as AI-generated. That erosion of truth is far scarier than any bot chatroom, and we need to start taking AI literacy seriously.
