Zerebro Founder Is Back With New AI Token After Faking Death

Jeffy Yu, the creator of the once beloved AI musician Zerebro who faked his death earlier this year, has released an artificial intelligence-written manifesto—and a new Solana meme coin to accompany the document.  Physical Limits of Intelligence (PLOI) quickly surged to a $5.4 million market cap before retracing to a recent $1.1 million market cap. The top trader, known as PainCrypt0, realized profits of over $26,800 from a $2,634 investment, according to DEX Screener.

The manifesto, which did not mention a token, argues AI won’t reach human-level intelligence, but rather that AI and humans will slowly converge biologically, chemically, and surgically in a new form of humanity. Yu told Decrypt that the plans for the project are “stealth” and that they plan to build “an institution.” He added that “the fact that AI produced” the manifest bolsters the arguments made within it.

The manifesto and PLOI come seven months after Yu staged his death with a fake video of him shooting himself in the head, a San Francisco Chronicleobituary, and an accompanying blog post. The article explained that Yu had created a crypto token, Legacoin (short for legacy coin), which would serve as a “final art piece.”
The token soared to a market cap of over $105 million before crashing as the obituary was removed. The local coroner’s office told Decrypt that no one had died, and the San Francisco Standard found Yu alive at his dad’s house. For that reason, some traders remain apprehensive of Yu’s new project. When Decrypt asked Yu about these concerns, the creator said, “Write what you’re gonna write.”
Other market participants have goodwill for Yu’s crypto ventures. Zerebro was a much-loved and successful AI musician with a crypto token attached to the project. Its token surged to a peak market cap of $784.42 million in January, as Zerebro’s music got heads bopping and the AI character shitposted on X.
In the month following its all-time high, the ZEREBRO token crashed 92% to $59.62 million, according to DEX Screener. The token’s price had fallen to $42 million before Yu faked his death in early May, and social media for the AI musician disappeared. Now it has a market cap of just $36 million.
