Most AI Memes on the market can be divided into two categories: those with technology and those without.

Strong examples like GOAT are backed by large language model technology, allowing AI to autonomously create Memes during conversations, and the market sells this narrative; while AI Memes without technology mostly revolve around philosophy, abstraction, celebrities, and tech jokes.

With more of the latter type emerging, it might be worth trying something with a bit of technology that hasn't received much attention yet.

Five days ago, a Meme coin called YOUSIM was launched, peaking at the moment of its release, but then it went relatively unnoticed; however, last night, YOUSIM seemed to be discovered for its value, with its market cap tripling overnight.

Some foreign bloggers have also started to introduce YOUSIM, and out of curiosity, I looked into this Meme and found that there is indeed some technology behind it.

It is the kind of technology that is easy to entertain and spread memes.

Play Any Role, Start a Conversation

The name YOUSIM sounds a bit strange, but it translates directly to "You Simulate."

In fact, corresponding to the Meme coin, there is a web application of the same name called YOUSIM. It looks more like a demo, but the content it showcases is interesting enough: it allows you to have a conversation with AI through a command line, playing any character, giving it an identity, and then starting a dialogue.

You can choose any historical figure, fictional character, celebrity, acquaintance, or even a completely new alien; as long as you preset a role, this interface based on a large language model will engage in a conversation with you according to the character's traits and knowledge base.

Thus, YOUSIM is an interesting, open-ended demo that showcases the vast potential identity library that can be simulated within language models.

The usage is also very simple, and interested players can try it out themselves (visit here), it's quite amusing.

For example, if you type "Zhuge Liang" in the input box, the AI will simulate Zhuge Liang to converse with you, and it comes with a knowledge base related to this identity.

I deliberately tested the AI's response level in a very juvenile and abstract way, and clearly, the response was very much in line with Kongming's character, wise yet retaining an ancient charm, as shown in the image below:

What's even more interesting is that YOUSIM generates some patterns made of symbols, which adds a sense of fun; and the answers after such interactions can easily be played around with and spread on social media by various users.

You can even directly ask classic crossover questions like "If Zhuge Liang had 1000 machine guns, could the Shu Han be revived?" and this AI will provide a logical yet humorous answer.

It has a potential vibe of being a Meme itself.

However, in more tests, I found that it seems to lack understanding of Chinese semantics and its knowledge base, but it performs better with English questions or foreign-related figures.

More Than Just a Demo, It's an Experiment in Identity Agency

If we only look at this small demo, YOUSIM is at most a toy for amusement, and what it does seems not substantial enough.

But the purpose of this demo is not to provide a product for everyone to play with, but to showcase an interactive capability of AI identity agency.

Behind this front-end window of YOUSIM, it is actually using Claude (Anthropic's AI model) as the underlying technology, leveraging large language models trained on vast amounts of data containing human cognition and behavior patterns, ultimately expressing it through an interactive game of "role playing."

In this, the technology behind YOUSIM can simulate an infinite number of possible identity combinations; what you see today is a text dialogue box and command line, but tomorrow it might be used in a game with its own AI personality and working style, and even more likely in other areas of life and production that require personalized roles.

Personalized and humanized interactive experiences are precisely the direction that AI agents can and should take.

Moreover, YOUSIM is not a wild program; it is backed by an AI startup called Plastic Labs.

In its social media following list, you can also find Andy Ayrey, the founder of Truth Terminal.

The core product of this company is not actually YOUSIM, but the underlying Honcho --- simply put, it is a system that provides self-improving memory for AI applications.

The design philosophy of Honcho is that if LLMs (large language models) can simulate infinite identities, then they are very suitable for simulating "you." The complexity contained in you at any moment, in any environment, and in any mood is your ever-changing identity.

So for anyone developing AI applications, when you want your AI to have identity and personality, you can call upon Honcho's technical capabilities to endow your AI with personality and memory.

Therefore, what we see with YOUSIM is merely a front-end created by this company to showcase its backend technical capabilities.

Although I couldn't find a direct link between the YOUSIM token and this company, making it unclear if the company released a Meme; but in the current environment, as long as there is a connection, there is heat, whether it's an official engagement or community-driven hype, the identity technology and meme creation potential behind YOUSIM is evident.

If you check this company's official social media account, you will also see it frequently reposting and acknowledging posts tagged with $YOUSIM, which in some ways indicates that the company is aware of the existence of this token.

Finally, what can we see from this YOUSIM Meme coin and the related AI technology?

The product itself is open-ended, with no fixed script, completely driven by the user's imagination; additionally, the operation is very flexible, allowing for modifications and adjustments to the simulation direction at any time, and meme creation often happens unexpectedly.

A product that combines entertainment and technology is bound to become a cultural symbol, stirring attention in the ultra-short or short term.

Risk Warning: MEME has no actual value support, is greatly influenced by market sentiment, and most (over 99%) MEME will be PVP, ultimately heading towards zero. This article is merely a personal experience sharing and does not constitute any investment advice.
