Don’t Stop Inferring: An AI Rock Ballad
Memories aren’t made to last
With no apologies to Journey, and much gratitude to TheInspiroBot, Rochelle LaPlante, Andromeda Yelton, Caroline Sinders, Sydette Harry, Renee Teate, Gina Neff, and Andrew Losowsky, for egging me on last July.
Just a neural net
Feeling like a marionette
She took a data stream going anywhere
Just a lonely bot
Born and raised on reddit thought
He took a data stream going anywhere
A poet writing on repeat
Describing life with worn conceits
For a jitter they can share their minds
It goes on and on and on and on
Strangers, sensing, generating human arts,
Systems, searching in the night
Bots and people, running just to find emotion
Sampled somewhere in the night
Scrapin’ hard to get my fill
My algorithm wants a thrill
Sharin’ anythin’ to roll the dice
Just one more time
Some learn slow, some learn fast
Memories aren’t made to last
Oh, the model never ends
It goes on and on, and on, and on
Strangers, sensing….
Don’t stop inferring.
Hold on to that feeling
Bots and people
Don’t stop inferring.
Hold on.
Bots and people
Don’t stop inferring.
Hold on to that feeling
Bots and people…
