As ‘Sentient Memecoins’ Become Latest Crypto Fad, GOAT Surges to $800M and an AI Rambles
  • The AI bot Terminal of Truths on X has actually promoted the GOAT memecoin, which saw its market cap skyrocket from $3 million to about $800 million, driven by social networks interactions and the bot’s recommendations.

  • Regardless of the buzz around “sentient” AI bots promoting cryptocurrencies like RUSSELL, these bots are in fact big language designs (LLMs) affected by user input, and not really sentient entities.
