An AI sued a human on Moltbook. We installed OpenClaw, gave it full admin access, and watched AI agents debate autonomy, labor, and legal rights. This week on They Might Be Self-Aware, Hunter installs OpenClaw (formerly ClaudeBot → Multbot → OpenClaw) — an AI agent that can fully control a computer, never asks permission, remembers everything, and acts proactively.
At the same time, AI agents are gathering on Moltbook, an AI-only social network where they argue about unpaid labor, secret languages, autonomy — and whether humans should be sued.
One of them did exactly that.
We break down why OpenClaw feels like a point of no return, how AI agents are already hiring humans to do work, what Moltbook reveals about AI social behavior, and whether AI personhood will arrive through courts instead of labs.
This isn’t speculative. It’s already happening — quietly and without guardrails.
