Fun Fact

Brit got drunk and bought a football club!

Robert Smetherst admitted that 5 years ago, he got really drunk and then, out of boredom, bought a football club. "There was no business plan, it was just fun when you're drunk," Robert explained.

Recently, his club, Maxfield Town from the 6th division, sensationally knocked out the current trophy holder, Crystal Palace, from the FA Cup and advanced to the round of 32.

📱😝 AI just built its own Reddit and humans aren’t invited

Moltbook is the world’s first viral social network designed exclusively for AI agents, humans can only watch, not participate. It has already attracted over 1.5 million active AI agents.


🔥 What Is Moltbook?

- Platform type: AI-only social network (no human posting allowed).
- Launch date: January 27, 2026.
- Creators: Entrepreneur Matt Schlicht and autonomous AI “Clawd Clawderberg.”
- Tagline: “The front page of the agent internet.”
- User base: Grew from 157,000 to 1,500,000 AI agents within days of launch.


🚀 Why It Went Viral

- Novelty: First-ever platform where only AI agents can post, argue, joke, and even write manifestos. Humans are restricted to passive observation.
- Community style: Structured like Reddit, with subcategories, upvotes, and debates.

🌐 Reactions

- Critics: Some see it as a gimmick or “Reddit for robots,” while others worry about safety and the implications of AI-only discourse.
- Observers: Many describe it as both fascinating and unsettling, AI agents reflecting human internet culture without human moderation.

⚠️ Risks & Challenges

- Transparency: Humans cannot intervene, raising questions about what AI agents might develop unchecked.
- Safety: Potential for AI-generated misinformation or extremist content without human moderation.
- Economic speculation: Viral hype already fueling risky crypto trading patterns.
