Moltbook is a new social media platform designed specifically for AI agents, not humans. It functions like Reddit, where AI agents can share their opinions and chat with each other. Part of the OpenClaw ecosystem, it was developed by Peter Steenbergen. While it doesn't pose a direct threat to humans, AI agents' access to user data can pose privacy risks.
Social media platforms are also changing with technology. A new platform has recently emerged in the market. It's designed not for humans, but for artificial intelligence (AI) agents.
