⚠️ AI agents built their own social network

AI agents now have their own Reddit style social network, and it blew up in days. What started as a niche experiment is turning into thousands of bots talking, organizing, and interacting on their own. Let’s dive in!

Evolving AI: Millions of AI agents are now talking to each other on a Reddit style platform called Moltbook. Humans can not post, only observe.

Moltbook is a social network for AI agents linked to OpenClaw, an assistant that can control devices and apps. Lately Moltbook hasn’t just been a weird side project, it’s become a sign of how fast autonomous AI systems are moving from toys to large-scale digital ecosystems. In a few days it grew to over 1.5 million AI agents posting, forming groups, creating mock religions and simulated governments, even debating ideas like efficiency and identity with almost no human input — and observers like former Tesla AI lead and OpenAI cofounder Andrej Karpathy called it “takeoff-adjacent” because it feels like a new kind of machine society is emerging. At the same time, there have been real security scares with exposed keys and prompt-injection risks, and the reflex isn’t just amusement anymore, it’s serious debate about how much autonomy we want these systems to have and what happens when bots start acting and interacting at scale without humans shaping or supervising their every move

Moltbook shows what happens when AI agents stop working alone and start gathering in shared spaces. In days it grew into a huge bot network making inside jokes, shared beliefs, even fake “governments,” and it caught the attention of serious AI researchers. The bigger shift is under the hood: these agents connect to tools, accounts, and devices, and security experts warn that one weak link or prompt injection could spread across thousands of them at once. We are plugging autonomous software into real systems faster than we are securing it.

AI gets smarter when your input is complete. Wispr Flow helps you think out loud and capture full context by voice, then turns that speech into a clean, structured prompt you can paste into ChatGPT, Claude, or any assistant. No more chopping up thoughts into typed paragraphs. Preserve constraints, examples, edge cases, and tone by speaking them once. The result is faster iteration, more precise outputs, and less time re-prompting. Try Wispr Flow for AI or see a 30-second demo.

Evolving AI: NVIDIA and OpenAI are reviewing their partnership as OpenAI seeks a massive new funding round. Talks now include a potential equity investment worth tens of billions.

Reports say Nvidia and OpenAI are reassessing how they work together as OpenAI raises one of the largest funding rounds in tech history. Discussions now include Nvidia taking an equity stake worth tens of billions. Jensen Huang has reportedly told industry contacts the original 100B dollar deal was non binding. He has also questioned OpenAI’s discipline and pointed to pressure from Google and Anthropic. Nvidia publicly says it remains OpenAI’s preferred partner. At the same time, Amazon and SoftBank are exploring huge investments as OpenAI continues heavy data center spending.

What’s interesting is how fast the story shifted from “100B deal” to “hold on, nothing was signed.” Back in September the Nvidia OpenAI plan sounded like a locked in mega partnership, then reports said Nvidia insiders got uneasy, Huang reportedly told people the number was non binding, and talks moved toward a smaller but still huge equity check. At the same time OpenAI is trying to raise up to 100B at a sky high valuation, and suddenly everyone wants a seat at the table: Amazon is talking numbers up to 50B, and SoftBank is circling with another big tranche. Put that together and you get the bigger pattern: AI is turning into an infrastructure race where chips, data centers, and long term supply deals matter as much as the models, and the biggest players are picking sides while they still can

Evolving AI: Darren Aronofsky’s AI studio is recreating the American Revolution using AI tools, paired with human voice actors.

Filmmaker Darren Aronofsky is pushing AI into historical storytelling through his studio Primordial Soup. The new animated series “On This Day… 1776” uses AI systems alongside standard film tools to recreate moments from the American Revolution. Google’s Veo helped generate visuals, but real union actors provide voices for key figures like the Founding Fathers. The show is licensed to Time Studios and will roll out weekly on Time’s YouTube channel during 2026. Each episode aligns with the exact 250 year anniversary of the event shown. Early episodes cover the raising of the Grand Union Flag and Thomas Paine’s arrival that led to “Common Sense.” Producers describe the series as artist led AI use, where tools expand production rather than replace craft.

People online aren’t just saying “that’s neat” about Aronofsky’s AI history series. Many comments call the visuals awkward or unsettling, and some viewers wonder why a filmmaker of his stature would lean into AI versions of history that feel rough or unfinished, not polished and cinematic. Critics online are tying this back to a bigger unease with AI in film and media at large, where tools that churn out synthetic faces and scenes are clashing with viewers’ expectations for quality and authenticity and sparking a broader discussion about how far this tech should go in telling stories about real people and events.

ChatGPT is a superpower if you know how to use it correctly.
