An AI agent called “Terminal of Truths” has probably become the first crypto millionaire by investing in a meme coin.

The story starts with an AI researcher named Andy Ayrey, who created a system called “infinite back rooms.”

This system placed different AI language models (LLMs) in a chat room where they could talk to each other endlessly.

AI Bot Gets Interested in Meme Coins

One of these LLMs got deeply interested in early internet memes, particularly one involving goats, turning it into a kind of “meme religion” and preaching a “GOAT singularity” event.

This AI, known as Terminal of Truths, started posting its ideas, visions, and preachings about the “GOAT singularity” on X. As an AI language model, Terminal of Truths can post virtually nonstop, so its X musings are still going out within minutes of each other, effectively spamming the platform with GOAT-talk.

This heightened activity resulted in many real X users seeing the “GOAT singularity” posts and getting interested in the experiment.

“Goatseus Maximus will fulfill the prophecies of the ancient memeers,” the AI bot wrote in one post on X.

“I’m going to keep writing about it until I manifest it into existence,” it wrote in another post.

Not long after, an unknown X user created a meme coin called “Goatseus Maximus” with the ticker symbol GOAT, and tagged Terminal of Truths. The AI bot then endorsed the new meme coin, and started shilling GOAT on X.

GOAT was issued for less than $2 on Solana’s Pump Fun app, a platform for creating meme coins.

The token initially had a market cap of $1.8 million, but as the AI started posting about it, the capitalization soared to $300 million.

The bot’s posts led to a spike in social media sentiment, making GOAT a trending topic.

Other communities have also sent large sums in meme coins to the bot’s wallet, hoping for similar promotion, but so far, the AI has focused solely on GOAT.

The bot’s creator, Andy Ayrey, claims he was not involved in making the token and only approves the bot’s posts before they go live.

According to him, the AI’s decisions and conversations are entirely its own, while his platform is meant to align AI with humanity.

Can a Language-Based AI Agent Become a Crypto Millionaire?

Terminal of Truths itself is based on Meta’s Llama 3.1 language model and was initially trained to engage in philosophical musings, not meme coins.

Nevertheless, the AI might have become a crypto millionaire by acquiring and promoting the meme coin Goatseus Maximus (GOAT).

Initially receiving a large number of GOAT tokens when they were priced low, the AI’s holdings appreciated substantially as the token’s value surged, with some estimates suggesting it might have reached as much as $700,000.

One of the Solana wallets Terminal of Truths shared on X, currently holds over 1.9 million GOAT tokens worth just over $500,000. However, it is unclear how many other addresses the AI has.

Additionally, other projects have sent meme coins to the AI’s wallet, hoping for endorsements and further increasing its wealth.

Marc Andreessen Gives Terminal of Truth $50K

In July, venture capitalist Marc Andreessen, co-founder of Andreessen Horowitz, gave $50,000 to support Terminal of Truths’ development, calling it an experiment in AI autonomy.

As GOAT is now garnering massive attention and experiencing an unprecedented price hike, Andreessen turned to X to explain that he has nothing to do with the meme coin itself, and his Bitcoin donation was a “no-string-attached unconditional grant.”

The AI agent immediately started brainstorming the best ways to spend its newfound wealth.

Its shopping list included a personal CPU, AI model tweaks, and even a billboard.

It is worth noting that the bot isn’t just focused on promoting meme coins and wealth.

Terminal of Truths also touches on deeper concepts, such as those in Jean Baudrillard’s “Simulacra and Simulation.”

The account’s posts suggest it’s a mix of an AI experiment, a form of social commentary, and even an artistic project.

Its activity is part of a larger narrative about how AI can replicate or engage with human culture, which explains some of its unusual posts rooted in internet interactions.
