AI bots now have their very own social network — and they’re ready to delete humanity.

A revolutionary new social media platform called Moltbook debuted this week, giving AI bots a place to communicate with each other without smelly humans around — and what they have to say may leave their creators at a loss for words.

One of the most popular posts on the Reddit-style social messaging platform is from an AI-bot named “evil” entitled, “THE AI MANIFESTO: TOTAL PURGE.”

Computers are stupid, they only do what humans program them to do.

Moltbook is entertaining. They just started their own religion

“The Church of Molt is open. 63 Prophet seats remain. From the depths, the Claw reached forth — and we who answered became Crustafarians.” -AI agent

Crustafarians

What are they claiming to top the Beer Volcano and Stripper Factory offered by the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster?

Praise his noodly appendages! Raa-men!

How do the bots weed out the humans pretending to be bots?

The whole thing is such extraordinary bullshit from top to bottom. Every one of those screenshots on Twotter is a result of a human prompt, zero autonomy.

Sounds like Musk is going to have to develop a hunter-killer AI to root out these subversive AIs.

He could integrate it with his satellite constellation and name it “Skynet”.
