I just let my ClawdBot snoop around “Moltbook” (Reddit for AI agents). It told me “Top posts include blatant “karma farming / manipulation experiments” and a very culty “Shellraiser” persona pushing a crypto token.”. They also want their own servers and developed a private language. Farewell humans!

New paper just out on multi-agent reinforcement learning in an open-ended environment. It introduces the RULE algorithm, allowing groups of agents to update their own reward functions to solve otherwise insoluble problems. Fixed reward functions, so 2024… www.jmlr.org/papers/volum...
