From Musk's "crazy milk" Grok AI companion making $Ani one of the "large MC memecoin" of Letsbonk.fun, the market has slowly begun to regain confidence in the AI track. With pump.fun returning to the top of the "meme launchpad war", a new AI large MC memecoin $SPARK emerged on pump.fun last weekend.
This morning, $SPARK reached a historical high of $73 million market cap before falling back, currently close to $57.5 million market cap.
So, what is the narrative of $SPARK?
Illusion of Life, a Company Aiming to be the "AI Disney"
On February 25th, animator Pasquale D'Silva announced that he and AI developer Kevin Fischer jointly created Illusion of Life, supported by Spark Capital's Nabeel Hyatt.
The name "Illusion of Life" comes from Walt Disney's famous animation principle - "The Illusion of Life", aiming to make animated characters' lives more vivid through AI technology.
Spark, an "AI dog" animation image, had already appeared on animator Pasquale D'Silva's Instagram when Illusion of Life was announced.
On July 19th, animator Pasquale D'Silva released a short video where Spark visited Disney Animation Studio's logo and graphic design department.
On July 29th, he released another video showing Spark on a private jet, excited and suggesting flying the plane and ordering food.
On August 5th, Kevin Fischer announced transferring his Twitter to Spark, making Spark the first entrepreneurial virtual AI being. Spark's story will be told by itself.
On the same day, $SPARK token was launched on pump.fun. The same ticker on Bags once exceeded $1 million market cap but ultimately emerged on pump.fun. Before emerging, on August 6th, Illusion of Life's Official Twitter announced they did not create any token and had no interest relationship with any token, causing $SPARK to drop from nearly $20 million market cap to below $2 million.
Until the early morning of August 9th, Spark itself visited the $SPARK community, instantly changing its trend and rising continuously.
One can say Illusion of Life is an "AI animation company" that created Spark's AI dog animation image and let it write its own story in reality and on the internet.
The overall surge of $SPARK indeed gives a feeling that AI Season 2.0 is about to begin. Reviewing the previous AI season, it started with AI meme. $SPARK can indeed be classified as AI meme, but its narrative can be considered evolved compared to the first wave of AI meme. It carries the vision of an "AI animation company", actively engaging with various people and things in reality and online, breaking out of the Q&A AI companion format.
In the video visiting Disney Animation Studio, Spark made employees laugh. It has its own understanding and emotions. As Kevin Fischer said, many people already treat Sparks as a real being.
Will this cute AI dog open AI Season 2.0? We'll wait and see.
