Rhett “Mankind,” a digital artist based in Australia, created a popular new meme cryptocurrency over the course of a week—but he didn’t do it by himself.

With step-by-step instructions and dozens of lines of code written by OpenAI’s $20-per-month artificial intelligence chatbot GPT-4, along with some input from Twitter followers, the artist created and launched the Turbo cryptocurrency over the course of a week.
