The contrarian in me is wary of the irrational exuberance over MoltBook. Nothing so far has struck me as being unpredictable. We knew already that LLMs were good at roleplay, to the point where some users started to think of their chatbots as soulmates (only to lament when the underlying model was pulled), and that chatbots can fall into conversational basins when even two instances are allowed to chat with each other at length. The appearance of memes that postdate training cutoff is suspect, which implies at the very least that humans have injected something at the level of prompts or content/context to introduce them into conversation like a Chekhov's Gun. And we know that security holes are common in vibe coding, attended or not.
