Hi guys.
To demonstrate (to a member of SG) the power and might of current AIs and the danger they represent for any artist out there, today I created a quick song about video gaming in general in the style of "Toss a coin to your Witcher".

The finished song was scary good, so I thought to myself: "Huh, we are missing a SteamGifts song."
So I sat down and with the help of ChatGPT I wrote some lyrics and with the help of SunoAI I created the music and, to be honest, I am floored of how good it turned out, although I am only using the free model.

To get to the point, hereby I present to you: Neon Hearts (SteamGifts Anthem)

[Intro]
In the heart of the net, where strangers connect,
Kindness travels through the wire.
Welcome to SteamGifts.
Where every gift lights a fire.

[Verse 1]
I log in past the midnight tide,
Neon threads where we collide.
A pixel smile, a quiet code,
Another gift down the data road.

No big rewards, no chasing fame,
Just giving joy — that’s the game.
In every key, in every trade,
A silent bond is gently made.

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And who keeps the engine clean?
Who’s behind this glowing dream?
A quiet name we all still know —
Two letters: CG, running the show.

[Chorus]
Signal of kindness, shining bright,
Gifts like stars in endless night.
One click, one key, a dream set free,
In the grid, we find unity.
Strangers turn to friends so fast,
Memories made, connections that last.
SteamGifts love, forever spun,
In circuits shared beneath the sun.

[Verse 2]
A bundle passed, a smile unseen,
Joy coded into every screen.
We speak in tags and karma lines,
But warmth runs deep in all our signs.

From group events to private trains,
From tiny joys to big campaigns,
We gift not just for what we earn —
But for the joy in each return.

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And while the world can glitch and freeze,
This place remains a glowing breeze.
With every name, with every game,
We build a bond that stays the same.

[Chorus]
Signal of kindness, shining bright,
Gifts like stars in endless night.
One click, one key, a dream set free,
In the grid, we find unity.
Strangers turn to friends so fast,
Memories made, connections that last.
SteamGifts love, forever spun,
In circuits shared beneath the sun.

[Bridge]
Forums glow with hidden lore,
Friendships rise from a digital floor.
Not just games, but hope we send —
A gift today might spark a friend.

[Chorus]
Signal of kindness, shining bright,
Gifts like stars in endless night.
One click, one key, a dream set free,
In the grid, we find unity.
Strangers turn to friends so fast,
Memories made, connections that last.
SteamGifts love, forever spun,
In circuits shared beneath the sun.

[Outro]
So here's to CG, and every soul,
Who makes the digital feel whole.
We give to live, we live to give,
SteamGifts — the love we leave.

Proves we don't need monkeys working typewriters for an eternity to get a Shakespear sonnet any longer.

I feel like it's still possible to tell it's an AI song, but if I heard this passing by or just wasn't paying too much attention, this could easily pass as a human made song.
Also, that bridge sounds insanely good and it was entirely made by AI.

It made me sad because I liked the song that was in the demo when I played it but yeah the rest is...
Anyway the writing for the game is much better and the voice acting and art are awesome so the game still has a lot going for it.

I think it’s the cliched verbage that gives it away.
Also, it sounds like an utopian version of Steamgifts, where everyone gives, and there is no need for levels or explaining rules or group giveaways because everyone is just part of a great big sickly sweet friendship hug.

Like any other anthem

That's always the big flashing neon sign when it comes to LLM-generated text.
Reasearchers even used that and identified words the usage of which has recently spiked in research papers to study just how thoroughly "chatbots" had infiltrated scientific publishing

This is suprisingly good. No wonder the music industry is so up in arms over AI and so forth. Still think the great songwriters conveying feelings and emotions in words will be safe for a while yet.

Agreed. But I can see why the music soup merchants are worried.
