Clawdbot changed to Moltbot

Unproofread notes

As per this post on X, Anthropic asked Clawdbot to change their name due to the trademark stuff, so they did change. And the Clawdbot is now Moltbot.

Due to this and earlier issues of Anthropic blocking API access to some tools, people are really unhappy from them and calling this move unfair as Claude and Clawd are two completely different names.

Peter also tweeted about the same saying "The amount of crap I get for putting out a hobby project for free is quite something." and it does make sense. It was an unnecessary move from Anthropic.

And then there's this tweet from Theo as well. I see most people saying it was a bad move from Anthropic's side, but then some people are saying Anthropic is right.

But now that the change has happened, I like the name Moltbot better than earlier.
