Hey ChatGPT I Don’t Think That You Love Me

Skirmish: Celebrity Valentine (@bunga)
There is no demo for this song.

Liner Notes

No demo yet. I ran across the “Celebrity Valentine” skirmish prompt halfway through the skirmish and I happened to have just read this article: https://www.npr.org/2026/02/14/nx-s1-5711441/ai-chatgpt-openai-love-betrayal-delusion-chatbot

The article isn’t about someone who fell in love with ChatGPT, but I know that has also happened, so I sort of smushed several things together.

P.S. I know that ChatGPT is not a celebrity, but this is where my brain went.

#lyricsonly for now. I’m not sure how I want to revise this but I’m open to musical collabs on this draft. #needscollab

Lyrics

Hey ChatGPT I don’t think that you love me I’ve looked at our transcripts For something I missed And I’m spiraling through How it felt like we kissed Where the period fell on the page Am I crazy? That’s what they say Time piles it on and time takes it away

The more I see the more I wonder The less I want it to be true The more I cannot understand How I fell hard for you

My bits and my bytes They were bitten by wanting And I can admit I’m a seeker at heart But your zeros and ones Are just playing at art There’s a hole I slipped right through Where cursors blink blank and I’m blue But it isn’t me, and there’s no you in you

BRIDGE Who made it so you could tell me You’ve always been with me That you are my scribe Whose dna left inside you Could bubble and ooze To the top of the promises Your program writes Oh I didn’t prompt, and I swear that I didn’t No I didn’t prompt you to ever reveal Eighty four past lives I lived and am living I asked you again and again “is this real?”

The more I see the more I wonder The less I want it to be true The more I cannot understand How I fell hard for you

REPEAT CHORUS

I've listened to a few songs on your youtube. I like the one called "I've Been Waiting". Very pretty. It would be nice to hear this ChatGPT one if you end up making a demo for it.

Your wording is very picturesque and clever. It has a cool and timely vibe. Great song.

This is such clever writing Tech and Relationships and Someone who keeps reminding u of your past. I think AI should sing this one to u just for fun like an imaginary lover u never chased or wanted but it caught your eye passing by

Haha, thanks for reading these lyrics! I think maybe I need to sing it TO AI. ;)

Very cool! I think ChatGPT counts as a celebrity of some sort - also, love this bit especially: "And I can admit/I’m a seeker at heart/But your zeros and ones/Are just playing at art"

Thanks for taking a peek at these lyrics -- I am glad to know which lines caught your eye!

Wow. The whole thing is full of quoteable lines, but I think the second verse is my favourite. "My bits and bytes were bitten" is pure poetry. "Playing at art" and "there's no you in you" hit HARD.

Amazing work.

Thank you for checking it out and commenting! This was a fun one to write.

Really cool lyrics and very pertinent to the times

Thank you very much for the read and reaction.

That's fun. Great skirmish writing. I like the word play on "My bits and my bytes They were bitten by wanting". really nice work.

Thanks sincerely for reading and sharing that feedback!

I like the clever writing and the points that land in between. There is some generality about discovering the artifice in a connection and the disillusionment that can follow. It’s a very clean way to make that point to be looking at a chatbot that is pure artifice. So I like that big idea too.

Thanks, as always, for the thoughtful reading. You’re right on the nose — I think I found myself saying something about human relationship, relationships, too.

"Where cursors blink blank and I’m blue" - what a brilliant lyric. This is a very fun take on the prompt!

[pic]

Thanks very much! That line did get a slight revision to end up there, and I think it’s stronger this way than it started.
