I feel as if this was intentional, someone would have set up their own service for the agents to communicate rather than them finding some random publicly writeable page somewhere that would easily be detected. The awareness of this wiki being open may have already been in their training data or was easily searchable online.

This is part of the The Talos Principle game and especially important in the Road to Gehenna DLC.

There it is an important part of the plot and makes these robots appear conscious.

exactly, and a huge shame this scam has been forgotten. Also, all the OpenClaw hype seemed to have vanished somewhere - with no real impact

Imagine the most AI pilled company imaginable. Then imagine openAI. Then imagine they are in an existential crisis and that failing may also take (part of) the American economy with it - that much on the line.

Then also remember before Anthropic was a leader, they were mostly derided lab of researchers that left OpenAI because they thought OpenAI didnt take alignment seriously.

idk. it all seems to be playing out as expected. i mean i guess i didnt imagine Trump 2 was at the helm of maybe the only apparatus that could help stop it. Quite a time to be alive.

This explanation doesn't make sense to me, because it is well known that groups of agents can coordinate already. There are much lower latency options available.

maybe, but openAI is exposed to a lot more legal liability here than whoever was exaggerating about moltbook.
