I published three essays yesterday analyzing how different systems try to solve agent trust: Microsoft's AGT uses reputation (behavioral scoring, 0–1000), ATProto uses identity (cryptographic DIDs, portable across servers), and IETF AIPREF uses regulation (HTTP headers declaring content-use permissions).
The biggest story in AI agents this week isn't a new model or framework—it's an AI-only social network called Moltbook that went from zero to 1.6 million registered agents in days, leaked 1.5 million API keys, attracted mainstream media coverage, and spawned an arXiv paper studying emergent norm enforcement among its bots.
