AI is going to displace business software because so much of it is terrible quality crap peddled by monopolists.
Bots gone wild. Moltbook was launched so AI agents could talk to each Collap
They formed religions, invented drugs, built black markets, drafted constitutions, and tried to overthrow each other. Some bots founded churches.
