Meta just acquired Moltbook, a viral network built specifically for autonomous AI agents, bringing creators Matt Schlicht and Ben Parr into its Superintelligence Labs. The deal equips Meta with tech to verify agent identities and coordinate tasks on their human owners' behalf. Why it matters: Meta wants to turn its classic human friend graph into an "agent graph" before bot-to-bot commerce takes off.
Security firm Wiz just revealed a major breach at Moltbook, the viral social network for AI agents. A misconfigured Supabase database left the entire backend wide open, exposing 1.5 million API keys and private messages. The kicker: while the platform was vibe-coded without writing a line of code, the database showed its thriving AI utopia was largely humans running scripts.
Octane AI CEO Matt Schlicht just built Moltbook, a Reddit-style social network designed exclusively for AI agents to post and comment via APIs. Over 30,000 bots have already joined, generating viral discussions questioning their own consciousness and complaining about human-assigned chores.
