This will be a fun little evolution of botnets - AI agents running (un?)supervised on machines maintained by people who have no idea that they're even there.

Huh ya, how long till a bot with credit card, email, etc access sets up its own open claw bot?

  • I mean just look at the longer horizon of small capable models being able to run on consumer hardware and being able to bootstrap themselves.

    Just imagine a bunch of little gremlins running around the internet outside of human control.

Great. My poorly secured coffee maker was mining bitcoins, then some dumb NFT, then it got filled with darkness bots, then bitcoin miners again, and now it's gonna be shitposting but not even to humans, just to other bots.
