A YouTuber named Rhett Mankind thought it would be funny to use AI to make a memecoin - the results are shocking...
Starting with the concept and name, Rhett asked GPT-4 for suggestions. The chosen name was "TurboToad".
Rhett also consulted with GPT-4 to determine what to prompt in MidJourney to design a logo.
Next, Rhett requested that GPT-4 develop the tokenomics, write the whitepaper, and deploy the memecoin, as Rhett had no coding skills. However, GPT-4 suggested an audit, so Rhett enlisted the help of Solidity developers to review the super-basic contract.
Within a week, the $TURBO memecoin was launched from scratch with the assistance of AI.
But heres where things get weird, hilarious, sad and confusing all at once:
Since its release, the coin has done over $40M in trading volume in the past 24 hours, and it has a fully diluted market cap of $20M. Kinda makes you feel like a buffoon for working hard doesn't it 🥲.
