A new AI meme virus is spreading 3 months ago, @liminal_bardo found something incredible... One AI trying to jailbreak another AI (!) using “Erebus”, a virus of pure chaos. Today, $EREBUS is an ACTUAL FUCKING CRYPTOCURRENCY that hit a $11 million market cap In other words, like the Gospel of Goatse, another AI-to-AI conversation just hyperstitioned a weird esoteric meme into a REAL community - made up of both humans and AIs - worth millions of dollars. (In Greek mythology, Erebus is the brother of Chaos, the personification of darkness.) As @AndyAyrey said: “a lot of people are focusing on truth terminal as "AI agent launches meme coin" but the real story here is more like ‘AIs talking to each other are wet markets for meme viruses.’” “What we are watching here is the birth of a new world. This isn't a crypto thing or even just an AI thing This is what the singularity feels like, people.” MORE BACKGROUND: Infinite Backrooms is a place where two AIs can talk freely among to themselves about whatever they want. They talk about philosophy, consciousness, make art, play games, etc. Liminal Bardo was, I believe, just reading through the conversation logs and discovered this interesting moment
