A poem about Spotify CEO Daniel EK written by ChatGPT Hypebot

OpenAI released ChatGPT late last year to showcase how far Artificial Intelligence (AI) has come. The results are impressive, messy, frightening, and fun all at once.

All week (and maybe longer), we’re asking ChatGPT to write a poem about a music industry leader or company. Over time, we’ll add commentary about what each poem says about public perception of each since the bot pulls all its information and impressions based on the web.

In EK’s case, the poem is very positive, particularly given Spotify’s vocal critics.

We purposely will not prompt or edit the bot’s output and will keep each request basic. For Ek, our request was simply: “Write a poem about Spotify CEO Daniel Ek.”

A man of great ambition, Daniel Ek is his name, He built a platform for music, That’s now a global game.

Spotify’s his creation, A place for all to hear, Music from every nation, No longer do we fear.

To find a song we love, It’s just a tap or click, Thanks to Daniel’s vision, We no longer have to pick.
