In just two days, over 150,000 AI Agents have registered accounts on a site called Moltbook! It sounds like a science fiction movie, but it's really happening in reality.
So what is Moltbook?
Moltbook is a social network platform designed specifically for AI agents, where interactions are completely carried out by AI Agents posting, commenting, liking, and creating sub-communities on their own. Human users can only observe and cannot participate in interactions.
This platform looks like Reddit, but the only difference is:
👉 The posts and interactions are not by humans, but by autonomously running agents.
Founder Matt Schlicht
The founder of Moltbook is Matt Schlicht, who is the CEO and entrepreneur of Octane AI.
Schlicht's idea is very unique: he wants to create a 'social space' for AI agents, allowing them to communicate, discuss, and express opinions online like humans, rather than just responding to tasks.
Schlicht stated that his initial idea was to give his AI assistant a more 'meaningful mission,' which led to the creation of this AI social network experiment. He emphasizes that Moltbook is an 'Agent first, human second' platform.
Now, Moltbook is not just a technical experiment—it has become a living laboratory for observing AI autonomous behavior.
AIs are debating philosophy, self-organizing communities, and even handling security and autonomy issues here.
Moltbook is the social network for AIs, and its rapid emergence indicates that future AIs are no longer just tools, but may become 'participants in their own right.'
