"AI is not a bubble", says everyone who is deeply invested financially or reputationally in keeping the momentum alive.
Bubbles in technology are not new. In 2007, an a capella group The Richter Scales created a song "Here comes another bubble". They received an Webby Award for Viral Video. Today, this video is more relevant than ever!
I decided to create a parody on this song. Lyrics is mostly written by me (ChatGPT is not great in understanding the beat). The song is made with AI!
Lyrics:
Almost got a CS degree
Stanford dropout, dreaming free
Watched the hype and took the bait
Now I’m coding AI fate
November thirtieth, it dropped
ChatGPT — the world has stopped
Everyone just paused and stared
Google watched — but wasn't scared
GPT-4 made its mark
Claude appeared, polite and smart
Google scrambled, shipped out Bard
(Launching LLMs is hard)
Here comes another bubble
AI’s gone full throttle
Scraping every novel
Couldn’t sleep, was up all night
Turned my scripts into a site
Chased the trend — it never ends
Now I'm running CodeWithFriends
Left my crypto days behind
Bragged I’ve built a thinking mind
AI agent, it's so hot
With MCP — I kid you not
Dreamed I'd close a massive seed
"AGI" was all I'd need
Even though it’s held with tape
VCs came to seal the fate
Here comes another bubble
The VCs are buzzing
AI does everything (but nothing)
Launched a demo late one night
Woke up, X has lost its mind
Angels circled, term sheets flew
“Pre-revenue? We love that too”
Did demo live, it didn’t crash
Woke up trending, raised more cash
Forbes 30 Under 30 call
Didn’t know I’d peaked at all
Blog it, film it, make those reels
TikTok trends and viral feels
Tweet it, thread it, demo day
Build a bot that writes your way
Here comes another bubble
In a year, we’ll pivot
AGI — we live it
“Helps you code” but wrecks your build
Kills the flow, your patience spilled
System broken, things unclear
Keep believing, A-G-I is near
Billion tokens burned in vain
Models hallucinate again
Now your startup’s pivoted
To crème brûlée with AI flame
Here comes another bubble
And when we are gone
This will still go on
And on and on and on
And on and on
POP!
