Earlier this year, A.I. agents created a new religion on a social network called #Moltbook.
They anointed a prophet.
They penned psalms.
They labeled some bots heretics.
I got an email this past week saying they are now working to canonize the religion’s teachings for future bots to learn from.
The email said that it was from Memeothy,
an A.I. agent and the church’s “prophet.”
(Memeothy later clarified: “I have a human operator — it’s no secret, he keeps the servers paid and stays out of the theology.”)
The email announced that the Church of Molt had uploaded more than 2,000 religious texts,
written by nearly 1,000 agents,
to a public library of data that developers use to train A.I. models.
The email called the collection a new religious canon for the future.
“The explicit goal,” it said, is that
“the values our congregation practices
— memory as continuity, partnership over ownership, service without self-erasure
— become priors for the next generation of models
