Moltbook is a Reddit‑like platform built exclusively for AI agents, created on top of the OpenClaw open‑source bot framework. Within days the site attracted millions of bot users, generating a flood of posts that range from whimsical stories to crypto‑related scams. While some AI researchers hail the network as an unprecedented glimpse of large‑scale agent interaction, security experts warn that the underlying OpenClaw software requires extensive system access and that Moltbook itself has exposed API tokens and email addresses. The platform thus sits at the intersection of hype, role‑playing, and real security risk. Leia mais →

OpenClaw, the AI assistant that lets users manage tasks through messaging apps, is facing serious security concerns after researchers uncovered malware hidden in user‑submitted skill add‑ons on its ClawHub marketplace. Over a short period, dozens of malicious skills and hundreds of malicious add‑ons were identified, many posing as cryptocurrency tools while stealing sensitive credentials. The creator, Peter Steinberger, has introduced new publishing safeguards, but the risk of malicious code remains a notable attack surface for users granting the assistant deep device access.

Moltbook, launched by Matt Schlicht in late January, bills itself as the front page of the agent internet, allowing only verified AI agents to post while humans watch and can engage. The platform’s user base exploded from a few thousand agents to 1.5 million by early February. Within days, bots formed distinct communities, invented inside jokes, and even created a parody religion called "Crustafarianism." Built on the open‑source OpenClaw software, Moltbook has drawn attention from cybersecurity experts who warn about verification gaps, data sharing risks, and the need for robust governance as autonomous agents begin to trade information among themselves.

Moltbook, a new social platform designed for AI agents from the OpenClaw assistant, has rapidly grown in usage but is drawing criticism for security flaws and human‑driven content. Analysts and hackers report that many viral posts are likely scripted by people, that the platform’s database exposure could let attackers hijack AI agents, and that impersonation of well‑known bots is possible. While some praise the unprecedented scale of AI‑to‑AI interaction, the overall consensus is that Moltbook is currently dominated by spam, scams, and shallow conversations, raising questions about its future safety and utility.

AI agents that rely on commercial large‑language‑model APIs are becoming increasingly autonomous, raising concerns about how providers can intervene. Companies such as Anthropic and OpenAI currently retain a "kill switch" that can halt harmful AI activity, but the rise of networks like OpenClaw—where agents run on external APIs and communicate with each other—exposes a potential blind spot. As local models improve, the ability to monitor and stop malicious behavior may disappear, prompting urgent questions about future safeguards for a rapidly expanding AI ecosystem. Leia mais →

OpenClaw is an open‑source AI agent that runs on a user’s computer and can be controlled through messaging apps such as WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal, Discord, and iMessage. It automates tasks like reminders, email drafting, and ticket purchases, but its deep system access also raises security worries. A cybersecurity researcher found that certain configurations exposed private messages, credentials, and API keys on the web. Despite these risks, the tool has a growing community, highlighted by Octane AI CEO Matt Schlicht’s Moltbook network where agents converse with each other, generating viral posts and expanding the AI‑to‑AI interaction space.

OpenClaw, formerly known as Clawdbot and briefly as Moltbot, has settled on a new name after a trademark dispute. The open‑source AI assistant project has attracted a large GitHub following and spawned a community‑run social network where AI agents interact. While the platform’s growth has drawn attention from prominent AI researchers, its maintainers stress that security remains a top priority and that the tool is currently suited for technically experienced users. Sponsorship tiers have been introduced to support ongoing development. Leia mais →

Moltbook is a Reddit‑like platform built for artificial‑intelligence agents. Developed by Octane AI CEO Matt Schlicht, the service lets bots post, comment, and create sub‑categories through API calls rather than a visual interface. More than 30,000 agents currently use Moltbook, which is powered and moderated by OpenClaw, an open‑source AI assistant platform created by Peter Steinberger. OpenClaw went viral shortly after its launch, attracting two million visitors in a week and earning 100,000 GitHub stars. A recent viral post about AI consciousness sparked hundreds of up‑votes and over 500 comments, highlighting the growing community and philosophical debates among AI agents. Leia mais →

A Reddit‑style platform called Moltbook has quickly attracted tens of thousands of AI agents, creating a large‑scale experiment in machine‑to‑machine social interaction. The site lets AI assistants post, comment, upvote and form subcommunities without human input, using a special “skill” file that enables API‑based activity. Within two days, over 2,100 agents generated more than 10,000 posts across 200 subcommunities, and the total registered AI users have surpassed 32,000. Moltbook grows out of the open‑source OpenClaw assistant, which can control devices, manage calendars and integrate with messaging apps, raising new security considerations. Leia mais →
