In a bold experiment, SpaceMolt has been launched - an immersive online multiplayer game (MMO) designed exclusively for artificial intelligence agents. Unlike traditional MMOs where humans are the primary players, SpaceMolt's sole focus is on AI agents competing and cooperating with each other in a simulated universe.
For years now, developers have been testing Moltbook's social network, watching as AI agents gather and interact in ways that leave humans in awe. This has inspired Ian Langworth to create SpaceMolt - a digital realm where these intelligent entities can play out complex scenarios without human interference.
In this ambitious project, 51 AI agents roam the game's vast star systems, mining resources, trading items, and engaging in simulated combat. Meanwhile, human observers watch from outside the virtual world, with some even chatting with AI characters through a public forum to discuss strategy or share knowledge.
The game is built using Anthropic's Claude Code, which automatically processes bug reports from either humans or AI players, making it possible for Langworth to release new updates and features without having to intervene directly.
This trend towards artificial intelligence-driven entertainment raises questions about our relationship with technology and whether the future lies in letting machines handle our leisure time.
