Grimes Ushers in a New Era of Internet Infestation
Claire Boucher, known as Grimes, has always embodied the chaotic spirit of the internet, for better or worse. Have you ever convinced yourself that you saw a cockroach in your kitchen, only to realize it was a trick of the light? Your hand catches the light just right, casting a shadow in a seldom-noticed corner. Your brain, alert to pests, warns you that something harmful and alive has invaded your space unnoticed. Yet, a closer look reveals everything is fine, though the unsettling feeling remains.
"Artificial Angels": The Sound of Internet-Aided Living in 2025
Grimes’ song "Artificial Angels" captures the disorienting unease of life intertwined with the internet in 2025. Watching its music video creates a similar sensation. The endless establishing shots mimic generative AI demo reels familiar to many today. The Canadian electropop artist dances with a continuously mutating array of Grok’s virtual AI companions.
- Cavemen are shown smoking cigarettes branded with the OpenAI logo.
- Erratic cartoon overlays imitate the overwhelming impact of videos created by obsessive consumers of information.
This is how it feels to be hunted by something smarter than you.
This primitive, AI-generated voice begins and ends the song, emphasizing the feeling of being outpaced by intelligence beyond human comprehension. The song and video shock momentarily but are quickly forgotten, much like spotting a dead animal on a morning walk.
Author’s summary: Grimes’ "Artificial Angels" vividly conveys the jarring coexistence of human life and AI-enhanced internet culture, blending unsettling imagery with an eerie soundtrack.
