Description

If you haven't heard, there's now a social network for AI: Moltbook, a site that purportedly features AI agents talking to each other. That includes OpenClaw, a personal AI agent (formerly called Clawdbot and Moltbot) that's open source and free for anyone to run on their systems. In this episode, Devindra and Senior Reporter Karissa Bell discuss the rise of these services, and the potential future that AI agents may have for all of us. What is Moltbook and OpenClaw? – 1:31Anthropic reinforces its commitment against ads with Super Bowl ad spots – 19:32SpaceX acquires xAI and plans for a mega IPO – 27:08Alexa + rolls out free for all Amazon Prime subscribers – 33:36Around Engadget: Reviews of the New AirTag and Switch Virtual Boy – 44:12Working on – 46:34Pop culture picks – 49:24
