While the world debates Moltbook's role in the AI ecosystem, it is just the tip of the iceberg of Titanic risk. SecurityScorecard's STRIKE team uncovered what lurks beneath: Thousands of exposed OpenClaw (Moltbot) control panels vulnerable to takeover through misconfigured access and known exploits.
There’s a story about a guy who asked his LLM to remind him to do something in the morning, and it ended up burning quite a lot of money checking to see if daylight had broken once every 30 minutes with an unnecessary API call. Such is the supposed helpful assistant.
That story was about a guy paying to use an API for a flagship model (like 200 billion parameters).
I think these people are talking about self-hosting a local model (probably like 12-32 billion parameters depending on your hardware), which means no API, no payments, and more personal control over settings and configuration.
Thousands of open-source models are freely available on huggingface, and you can even make your own fine-tuned version based on an existing one using any datasets you choose.
Still no point in using an AI agent to do what a basic alarm/reminder could do, but it allows people to innovate their own ways to integrate them into specific workflows. You can even configure them to play minecraft, just as an example
