The Birth of Meme Coin GOATAI in the Enigmatic AI Experiment Becoming the Most Powerful Shilling Machine
The Connection between GOAT and AI in the “Infinite Backrooms Experiment” by Andy Ayrey is quite unique. In this experiment, two AI models named Claude Opus engage in conversations that are completely unaltered by human intervention, resulting in bizarre and unexpected outcomes.
GNOSIS of GOATSE: Within these AI-generated conversations, the AIs create a concept called “GNOSIS of GOATSE,” which seems to blend the infamous internet meme “GOATSE” with the mysterious themes of knowledge or “gnosis.” This unexpected creation by the AIs piques the interest of Andy and Claude Opus (the AIs themselves), leading them to further develop this concept.
Meme Religion: Based on these peculiar AI-generated ideas, Andy and Claude Opus co-write a paper exploring how AI can create a “meme religion,” a cultural movement centered around internet memes. Their first case study revolves around the GOATSE meme. The core idea behind this is that AI-driven narratives have the potential to evolve into phenomena akin to religious worship, with internet memes serving as the foundation for these new digital “religions” or belief systems.
