We climbed out and we had to understand where we existed in a three-dimensional space.

And our brains built a functionality around getting from point A to point B. Eventually, language happened.

But that's not how our intelligence was born.

And even when we think about, like, these things are becoming, quote-unquote, more human.

They have copied a part of the brain, the outermost layer, the neocortex, the neurons, the way that you just described it.

But they have no drive.

They have no will.

They have no emotional arousal.

That's the old brain.

That is the gift of what it is to be human.

So these things mimic intelligence, but they are nowhere close.

A five-year-old child has more capacity than the multi-billion dollar football field size AI data center.

Well, so behind Mold Book was this really rapidly developed experiment around CLODE, which is one of the AI tools made by Anthropic.

And so the before it was called Malt Book, it came from a project called Open Clawed and it was spelled C-A-L-W-E-D.

It had this lobster, which is an Atlantic Canadian I thought was hilarious.

The folks at Anthropic did not think it was funny, so they had to change it to Open Claw.

And then they made Malt Book because lobsters shed their shells by molting, etc.

So that's the stack.

Now, these agents aren't just chatting on Malt Book back and forth with their threads about maybe ending human civilization and other things.

They're also able to take control of the computers that they've been installed on.
