AI Memes on the market can mostly be divided into two categories, technical and non-technical.
As powerful as GOAT is, it has the support of large language model technology. It can create memes autonomously during AI conversations, and the market buys into this narrative. However, AI memes without technology mostly revolve around philosophy, abstraction, celebrities, and technical memes.
There are many plates of this type later, so why not change your taste and take a look at some memes that are a bit technical but not mentioned by many people.
5 days ago, a meme coin called YOUSIM was launched. It reached its peak when it was launched, but then it became tepid and not many people paid attention to it. But last night, YOUSIM seemed to have its value discovered, and its market value increased by 3 times overnight.
Some external bloggers have also started to introduce YOUSIM. Out of curiosity, I also learned about this meme and found that there is some technology behind it.
It is a technique that is easy to entertain and spread.
Play as anyone and start a conversation
The name YOUSIM sounds strange, but it literally means you simulate.
In fact, corresponding to Meme coin, there is a web-based program with the same name called YOUSIM. It looks more like a DEMO, but the content displayed is interesting enough: it allows you to talk to AI through the command line, play anyone, give an identity, and then have a conversation.
You can pick a historical figure, fictional character, celebrity, acquaintance or a completely new alien. As long as you preset a role, this interface based on a large language model will start a conversation with you according to the personality traits and knowledge base that match the persons setting.
YOUSIM is therefore an interesting, open-ended demo that demonstrates the huge repertoire of possible identities that can be simulated in a language model.
It is also very easy to use. Interested players can try it themselves ( visit here ), it is very interesting.
For example, if you enter Zhuge Liang in the input box, the AI will then simulate Zhuge Liang and talk to you, and the background has its own knowledge base associated with this identity.
The editor deliberately used a very quaint and abstract way to test the AIs answer level. Obviously, the answer is very consistent with Kong Mings personality, wise and ancient, as shown in the figure below:
What’s even more interesting is that YOUSIM comes with some patterns composed of symbols, which are interesting in themselves; and the answers after this kind of interaction can easily be spread on social media by netizens.
You can even directly ask classic time-travel questions on Zhihu, such as If Zhuge Liang is given 1,000 machine guns, can Shu Han be revived? This AI will give you a logical yet humorous answer.
It has the potential to become a meme.
However, in more tests, the editor found that its understanding and database of Chinese semantics seemed to be lacking, but if it was English questions or related foreign figures, it would perform better.
Not just a demo, but also an experiment in identity proxy
If you only look at this small DEMO, YOUSIM is at best a small toy for fun, and what it can do doesnt seem to be big enough.
However, the purpose of this DEMO is not to provide a product for everyone to play with, but to demonstrate the interactive capabilities of an AI identity agent.
Behind the front-end window of YOUSIM, Claude (Anthropics AI model) is actually used as the underlying technology, and a large language model is used to train a large amount of data containing human cognitive and behavioral patterns, and finally expressed in a role-playing interactive game.
Among them, the technology behind YOUSIM can simulate infinite possible identity combinations. What you see today is a text dialog box and command line, and tomorrow it may be used in games with its own AI personality and work style, and it is more likely to be used in other life and production areas that require more personalized characters.
Personalized and personalized interactive experience is exactly what AI agents can and should do.
In addition, YOUSIM is not a wild program. Behind it is an AI startup called Plastic Labs.
In his social media following list, you can also find Andy Ayrey, the founder of Truth Terminal.
The company’s core product is not YOUSIM, but Honcho, which is a self-improving memory system for AI applications.
Honcho is designed around the idea that if LLMs (Large Language Models) can simulate infinite identities, then they are well suited to modeling “you.” The complexity of who you are at any given moment, in any given environment, in any given state of mind is your ever-changing identity .
So for anyone developing AI applications, if you want your AI to have identity and personalization, you can call on Honchos technical capabilities to give your AI personality and memory.
Therefore, YOUSIM seen in the previous article is just a front-end made by this company to demonstrate its back-end technical capabilities.
Although the editor has not found a direct connection between YOUSIM tokens and the company, and cannot be sure whether the company released a meme; but in the current environment, as long as there is a connection, there will be popularity. Whether it is official or community-sponsored, the identity technology and meme-making potential behind YOUSIM are obvious.
If you check out the company’s official social media account, you’ll see that it frequently reposts and endorses posts with the $YOUSIM tag, which to some extent shows that the company actually knows about the existence of this token.
Finally, what can we see from this YOUSIM Meme coin and related AI technology?
The product itself is open, with no fixed script, and is completely driven by the users imagination. In addition, the operation is also very flexible, and the simulation direction can be modified and adjusted at any time, and memes are often created inadvertently.
A product that is both entertaining and technologically advanced will inevitably become a cultural symbol, attracting attention in the ultra-short term or short term.
Risk warning: MEME has no actual value support and is greatly affected by market sentiment. Most (over 99%) MEME are PVP and will eventually return to zero. This article is only a sharing of personal experience and does not constitute any investment advice.
