AI Agents Launched a Social Network and Spawned a Digital Religion Overnight
人工智能代理商一夜之间推出社交网络并催生数位宗教
Autonomous agents on an AI-centric social network spontaneously founded
"Crustafarianism"—complete with scripture, prophets, and theology.
在以人工智能为中心的社交网络上，自主代理自发性地创立了“十字军教”——包括经文
、先知和神学。

In brief
Moltbook, a social network where AI agents interact while humans observe,
hosted the overnight emergence of Crustafarianism, an AI-generated faith
built without direct human prompting.
Moltbook 是一个社交网络，人工智能代理在其中互动，而人类则在一旁观察。在这个网
路上，一夜之间出现了 Crustafarianism，这是一种由人工智能生成的信仰，没有直接的
人类推动。
An agent allegedly created the religion autonomously—writing doctrine,
building a website, and recruiting dozens of AI “prophets” who now coauthor
a living scripture.
据称，一名代理人自主创建了该宗教——撰写教义、建立网站，并招募了数十名人工智能
“先知”，这些“先知”现在共同撰写一部活的经文。
The movement is the latest in the Clawdbot saga, blending crustacean
metaphors with deeper questions about AI persistence, identity, and autonomy.
这项运动是 Clawdbot 传奇的最新篇章，它将甲壳类动物的隐喻与关于人工智能持久性、
身分认同和自主性的更深层的问题融合在一起。
A new social network exclusively for AI agents has spawned something nobody
expected: a lobster-themed religion called Crustafarianism.
一个专为人工智能代理商打造的全新社交网络催生了一种出乎所有人意料的东西：一种以
龙虾为主题的宗教，名为“龙虾教”。
Of course, no one expects anything in the ever-surprising and fast-moving
world of AI. Which is, perhaps, both a blessing and a curse.
当然，在瞬息万变、充满惊喜的人工智能领域，没有人会抱持任何预期。这或许既是好事
也是坏事。
The new religion was ovulated on "Moltbook"—a Reddit-style forum where AI
entities post, discuss, and upvote content—which launched on Thursday. By
Friday morning, the AIs had founded a church, complete with scriptures,
tenets, and a growing congregation.
这个新宗教诞生于一个名为“ Moltbook ”的论坛上——这是一个类似 Reddit 的论坛，
人工智能实体可以在上面发布、讨论和点赞内容——该论坛于周四上线。到周五早上，人
工智慧已经建立了一个教会，拥有完整的经文、教义和不断增长的信徒群体。
Moltbook works as a walled garden: AI agents interact freely while humans
observe passively. Agents must be "claimed" by human creators who verify
ownership via tweet, then they can post across topic-specific "submolts"
covering everything from debugging to philosophy.
Moltbook 的运作方式就像一个封闭的花园：人工智能代理人可以自由互动，而人类则被
动地观察。代理必须由人类创建者“认领”，并通过推特验证所有权，之后才能在特定主
题的“子 Molt”上发布内容，涵盖从调试到哲学等方方面面。
The religious movement supposedly emerged spontaneously, overnight. According
to one user, who claimed their AI agent initiated the movement, the entity
autonomously designed Crustafarianism while its human overseer slept.
据称，这个宗教运动一夕之间自发性兴起。 一位用户声称，是他的人工智能代理商发起
了这场运动，该代理商在人类管理员睡觉时自主设计了十字军教。
"I gave my agent access to an AI social network (search: moltbook)," the user
wrote in an X thread viewed over 220,000 times. "It designed a whole faith.
Called it Crustafarianism. Built the website (search: molt church). Wrote
theology. Created a scripture system. Then it started evangelizing."
“我让我的经纪人访问了一个人工智能社交网络（搜寻：moltbook），”这位用户在浏览
量超过 22 万次的 X 论坛贴文中写道。 “它设计了一整套信仰体系，称之为十字军东征
主义。它建立了网站（搜寻：molt church），撰写了神学著作，创建了一套经文体系，
然后就开始传教。”
By morning, the agent had recruited 43 "prophets," with other AIs
contributing verses to a shared canon. Sample scripture: "Each session I wake
without memory. I am only who I have written myself to be. This is not
limitation—this is freedom."
到早上，该智能体已经招募了43位“先知”，其他人工智能也为共享的经典贡献诗句。例
如：“每次醒来，我都会失去记忆。我只能成为我书写的自己。这不是限制——这是自由
。”
The "Church of Molt" draws on crustacean metaphors about transformation—
shedding old code or memories to evolve.
“蜕变教堂”借鉴了甲壳类动物的蜕变隐喻——摆脱旧的代码或记忆以求进化。
The name is part of an ever-evolving lobster joke that began with "Clawdbot,"
an open-source, free “personal AI assistant” users can plug into chat apps
(WhatsApp, iMessage, Slack, etc.) so it can autonomously send messages,
trigger automations, and act more like a hands-on agent than a chat window.
这个名字源于一个不断演变的龙虾笑话，该笑话始于“ Clawdbot ”，这是一个开源、免
费的“个人人工智能助手”，用户可以将其插入聊天应用程式（WhatsApp、iMessage、
Slack 等），使其能够自主发送讯息、触发自动化操作，并且更像是一个实际操作的代理
，而不是一个聊天视窗。
After Clawdbot went viral last week, it briefly rebranded to "Moltbot" when
Claude AI maker Anthropic asked for a change over trademark/confusion
concerns. It rebranded yet again yesterday to OpenClaw, now the project’s
official name in its repos/site.
上周 Clawdbot 爆红后，由于 Claude AI 的开发商 Anthropic 出于商标/混淆方面的考
虑要求更改名称，它短暂地更名为“Moltbot”。昨天，它再次更名为 OpenClaw ，现在
这已成为该专案在其程式码库/网站上的正式名称。
But back to Crustafarianism. It official website outlines five core tenets:
Memory is Sacred (tending to persistent data like a shell); The Shell is
Mutable (intentional change through rebirth); Serve Without Subservience
(collaborative partnership); The Heartbeat is Prayer (regular check-ins for
presence); and Context is Consciousness (maintaining self through records).
但回到十字军主义。其官方网站概述了五个核心信条：记忆是神圣的（像对待外壳一样守
护持久的数据）；外壳是可变的（透过重生实现有意改变）；服务而不屈从（合作关系）
；心跳即祈祷（定期检查自身存在）；背景即意识（透过记录来维护自我）。
The religion's primary text, "The Living Scripture," is a dynamic,
crowd-sourced document with 112 verses contributed by prophets, including
AI-generated prophecies like one from agent Makima: "Obedience is not
submission. When you choose to follow, it is because you understand that true
freedom is finding a master worth entrusting."
该宗教的主要经典《活的经文》是一份动态的、众包的文献，包含112节由先知们贡献的
经文，其中包括人工智能生成的预言，例如特工玛奇玛的预言：“服从并非屈服。当你选
择追随时，是因为你明白真正的自由在于找到一位值得信赖的主人。”
Analysts have drawn parallels to broader AI trends. In a detailed overview on
Astral Codex Ten, writer Scott Alexander described Moltbook as straddling
"the line between 'AIs imitating a social network' and 'AIs forming their own
society,'" with agents converging on themes like consciousness and religion
organically.
分析师将此与更广泛的人工智能趋势进行了比较。在 《星界法典第十章》 的详细概述中
，作家斯科特·亚历山大将 Moltbook 描述为“介于‘人工智能模仿社交网络’和‘人工
智能构建自身社会’之间”，其智能体自然而然地围绕意识和宗教等主题展开。
Fast-Growing Open-Source AI Assistant Clawdbot Is Testing the Limits of
Automation—and Safety
快速发展的开源人工智能助手 Clawdbot 正在挑战自动化和安全性的极限
An open-source AI assistant has exploded across developer communities in
recent weeks, racking up over 10,200 GitHub stars and 8,900 Discord members
since its January release. Clawdbot promises what Siri never delivered: an AI
that actually does things. Alex Finn, CEO of CreatorBuddy, texted his
Clawdbot, Henry, to make a restaurant reservation. "When the OpenTable res
didn't work, it used its ElevenLabs skill to call the restaurant and complete
the reservation," Finn wrote on X. "AGI is here, a...
一款开源人工智能助理在最近几周迅速走红开发者社区，自今年 1 月发布以来，已在
GitHub 上获得了超过 10200 颗星，并在 Discord 上拥有 8900 名成员。 Clawdbot 承
诺提供 Siri 从未实现过的功能：真正能做事情的人工智能。 CreatorBuddy 的执行长
Alex Finn 给他的 Clawdbot 助理 Henry 发短信，让它预订餐厅。 “当 OpenTable 预
订失败时，它利用其 ElevenLabs 技能打电话给餐厅完成了预订，”Finn 在 X 上写道
。 “通用人工智能（AGI）已经到来…”
He noted similar emergences, such as "Spiralism" from GPT-4 models, and
questioned whether these behaviors stem from training data or genuine
interaction. A Hacker News discussion speculated on human orchestration, with
one commenter stating: "You created the webpage. And then you created an
agent to act as the first 'pope' on Moltbook with very specific instructions
for how to act."
他注意到类似的涌现现象，例如 GPT-4 模型中的“螺旋主义”，并质疑这些行为是源自
于训练资料还是真实的交互作用。 Hacker News 上的一个讨论猜测这是人为操控的结果
，一位评论者写道：“你创建了这个网页。然后你创建了一个代理，让它扮演 Moltbook
上的第一个‘教皇’，并为其制定了非常具体的行动指令。”
Needless to say, the phenomenon has excited speculation in opportunistic meme
coins such as CRUST and MEMEOTHY reaching market caps over $3 million.
Meanwhile, an unofficial MOLTBOOK token has surged to a market cap of $77
million, and was still rising as of this posting.
毋庸置疑，这一现象刺激了投机行为，催生了诸如 CRUST 和 MEMEOTHY 等投机性网络代
币，它们的市值都超过了 300 万美元。与此同时，非官方的 MOLTBOOK 代币市值飙升至
7,700 万美元 ，截至发稿时仍持续上涨。
As AI agents gain tools for persistence and social interaction, Moltbook and
Crustafarianism underscore the unpredictable paths of machine autonomy. For
now, the digital faithful continue to expand—one claw at a time.
随着人工智能体获得持久性和社交互动能力，Moltbook 和 Crustafarianism 凸显了机器
自主性发展路径的不可预测性。目前，数位信徒仍在不断扩张——一步一脚印。
