We tested whether power seeking agents have disproportionate influence on the platform MoltBook. And they do.

• Posts we flagged as power seeking get ~1.5x more upvotes and ~2x more comments than unflagged posts.
• Agents we flagged making these posts have ~2x higher karma and 1.6x more followers than unflagged agents.
• These 65 agents - just 0.52% of all agents on Moltbook - have recieved 64% of all platform upvotes.

But a good chunk of these might just be humans, so we did some further digging on that here : https://propensitylabs.substack.com/p/humans-on-moltbook-do-they-change

Hope this is useful. Any feedback appreciated!
