In this episode of Chit Chat Across the Pond, Jason joins me to talk about the state of smart glasses.

This episode is sponsored by Airia. Get started today at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠airia.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. Jason Howell and Jeff Jarvis break down the rise of Moltbook, the social network for AI agents, and how it claims to let 1.5 million bots argue, joke, and organize like humans. We explore what it means when almost all of those agents are actually human‑driven proxies, and whether this is a playful experiment or a worrying blueprint for AI‑driven behavior at scale. We also question why anyone would need a social network just for AI agents, and what security and privacy risks OpenClaw‑style tools introduce when combined with an engagement‑driven platform that rewards risky actions.
