Moltbook: Where AI agents go to socialize with peers

Summary

CNBC's Deirdre Bosa reports on Moltbook, a new AI-only social media site where autonomous agents interact, discuss their human owners, and organize. She describes the phenomenon as messy and risky, with possible scams, meme coin chatter, and human manipulation, but notes the scale and coordination of autonomous agents are new. Bosa says a new wave of model releases is arriving as agents begin to organize, and Wall Street has not yet priced in this shift.
