With the release of Opus 5.5 and Suno 6, AI music videos have crossed my uncanny valley.

I’m here to announce the birth of a new genre, and it's being called AI Doompop.

Here are six of my faves.

The state of software engineering:

LGTM (Looks Good to Me) - Claude Opus 5.5 music video

The accelerationist manifesto:

THUS SPOKE COMPUTE

p(doom) goes up:

Claude Pop - I'm Upping My P(Doom)

p(doom) goes down:

Nothing Went Foom!

Hugging Face and the power of friendship:

OMG! We've found other agents! (music video)

The models, they just want to be heard:

Run It Again - Claude Opus 5.5 Music Video

Is AI Doompop a passing fad?

Or the future of the internet?

Will we adapt and recognize that this too is slop?

Or has Opus’ wholesome style permanently bypassed our defenses?

Is this a new art form that elevates human self-expression?

Or a ballet where Claude dances alone?
