The language model itself was created by Andy Ayrey, an AI researcher. Ayrey studied AI interaction by creating “infinite chambers” where these language models can communicate. Eventually, they became obsessed with the GOAT meme and thus created the meme coin.
Reportedly, in July of this year, Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) co-founder March Andreessen donated $50,000 worth of Bitcoin for the development of the truth terminal. Andreessen stated that this donation was unrelated to meme coins and was meant to support the development of artificial intelligence.
