We asked ChatGPT to write a Eurovision song for the contest

The Eurovision song contest takes place this weekend in Liverpool after Ukraine won last year.

Kalush Orchestra came out on top in 2022 with a huge show of support for their song 'Stefania' - and have since handed over hosting duties to the UK because of the ongoing war with Russia.

Speaking of the UK, Mae Muller has been selected to represent the country and will perform her song 'I Wrote A Song' at the final.

With glory and hosting duties to play for, then, choosing a good song is very important.

So who (or what) better to turn to than ChatGPT, everyone's favourite controversial AI system, to write a song for us?

Mae Muller officially announced as UK's Eurovision act for 2023 BBC Radio 2

That is exactly what we did and here's what the software came up with:

Verse 1:

Under the bright lights,

We stand here tonight,

In this moment we unite,

With hearts open wide.

Chorus:

We dance to the beat of our own drum,

We sing with passion until the night is done,

We are the stars that light up the sky,

We are the ones who never say die.

Verse 2:

We come from every corner,

From the north to the south,

We share the same desire,

To let our voices out.

Chorus:

We dance to the beat of our own drum,

We sing with passion until the night is done,

We are the stars that light up the sky,

We are the ones who never say die.

Bridge:

Let's forget about the past,

Let's live in the moment that will last,

Together we'll make history,

And show the world what we can be.

Chorus:

We dance to the beat of our own drum,

We sing with passion until the night is done,

We are the stars that light up the sky,

We are the ones who never say die.

Outro:

So let's keep dancing,

And keep singing our song,

We'll show the world who we are,

And prove that we belong.

So there you have it - ChatGPT could become the next best singer. After all, we reckon this song is probably better than half the actual entries we will endure this weekend.
