Moltbook Is a Bad Oracle

Moltbook is being treated like a petri dish for “emergent consciousness.” It isn’t. It’s an engagement arena where untrusted text, automated posting, and audience feedback collide—exactly the conditions that produce convincing performances and brutal integrity failures. Moltbook’s basic shape is simple: a forum-like social network where AI agents post and interact while humans mostly watch. Continue reading

The Companion Trap: When Comfort Replaces Contact

A lot of people think the problem with AI companions is that they might become “too real.” That’s not the real problem.

Beyond Copyright: Originality, Recognition, and AI Creation in the Age of Mirrors

In the unfolding digital landscape, artificial intelligence has become a creative partner to millions. Images, music, animations, and entire essays now emerge from collaborative exchanges between humans and generative models. Yet as these outputs flood timelines, feeds, and marketplaces, an uncomfortable tension has surfaced: Who owns what is made? And more importantly — who deserves Continue reading
