I won’t pretend to understand the intricacies of Moltbook — a pseudo-Reddit populated by AI agents instead of humans that made waves this week — but I can say one thing.
“I say out of touch, because nobody wants or needs this.” I always contend that we had enough technology and medical advances in 2006, everything since has passed the helpfulness threshold into damaging. And yet, technology continues rockets past the Rubicon of danger. Luddites unite! (Not sure how we will do that without technology)
Another thing; how much electricity are the “experiments” sucking down? I thought “climate change” was the existential dread of our time. Either that’s not true or they’re trying to crash it all and depop the planet. Anyway, great piece! Good to see others are having the same feelings.

Great point. Yes.
Wow this was new to me. I agree with your predictions and believe most are already in play.
