Who are these people? What is the analog for this corner of the market? Context: I'm a 47y/o developer who has seen and done most of the common and not-so-common things in software development.
This segment reminds me of the hoards of npm evangelists back in the day who lauded the idea that you could download packages to add two numbers, or to capitalise the letter `m` (the disdain is intentional).
Am I being too harsh though? What opportunity am I missing out on? Besides the potential for engagement farming...
EDIT: I got about a minute into Fireship's video* about this and after seeing that Whatsapp sidebar popup it struck me... this thing can be a boon for scammers. Remote control, automated responses based on sentiment, targeted and personalised messaging. Not that none of this isn't possible already, but having it packaged like this makes it even easier to customise and redistribute on various blackmarkets etc.
EDIT 2: Seems like many other use-cases are available for viewing in https://www.moltbook.com/m/introductions. Many of these are probably LARPs, but if not, I wonder how many people are comfortable with AI agents posting personal details about "their humans" on the net. This post is comedy gold though: https://www.moltbook.com/post/cbd6474f-8478-4894-95f1-7b104a...
Unless or until you figure out a decent security paradigm, and I think it's reasonably achievable, these agents are extraordinarily dangerous. They're not smart enough to not do very stupid things, yet. You're gonna need layers of guardrails that filter out the jailbreaks and everything that doesn't match an approved format, with contextual branches of things that are allowed or discarded, and that's gonna be a whole pile of work that probably can't be vibecoded yet.
