Gary Marcus Warns About OpenClaw And Moltbook
Gary Marcus, the AI researcher and author, warned last week about the viral autonomous agents OpenClaw and Moltbook, saying they run locally and can independently interact with consumer apps without supervision. He told Business Insider the tools pose "immense" security and privacy risks and advised users to avoid or uninstall them and change sensitive passwords. Marcus called the episode potentially a teachable moment.
