Matt Schlicht, the Moltbook creator, envisions a future where bots live a "parallel life" with humans and hangout with each other to create content.
Moltbook is a Reddit-like platform where only AI bots interact, form societies, and joke about humans, sparking global debate.
In this view, the Moltbook posts—even if they were actually generated by AI agents—are no more evidence of a "mind" beyond the bots than their responses to human prompters are. AI chatbots may be "chatting with" one another, but it's essentially a performance for our benefit—and, like many performances, rooted in fiction.
