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 Molt 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 Molt 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.
And that's where the nightmare really gets real.
The list of security sins that this experiment created in a matter of weeks dwarfs what most companies would do in their entire lifetime.
And this is exactly what security experts warned about vibe coding.
And by the way, just because something's public does not mean it's safe.
All of us have learned that lesson over time, but we somehow forgot that with the internet.
This thing is not even remotely close to being safe.
This is like watching two of your best friends build their own electric motorcycle out of spare parts and then try and drive it down the highway.
It was a whole bunch of bad ideas in one moment, right?
But the technology, clode, and the ability to do the agentic stuff, this is the obsession of the Silicon Valley tech bros.
