Ummm actually yes - I fed it to Melobytes the AI composer and it’s worse than the HECnet Area 31 song … https://melobytes.com/en/view/bc597a2fb3bfdc5778b4b0f590d84ac5bd9ddd3346f353893224ca768fe82b91

 

  Pretty good, and more than a bit sad at the end.

 

  Now you should ask it to write one about SNA and see if it comes up with something different…

Subject: [HECnet] Bard writes a song about DECnet

 

I asked Bard to “Write a song about digital equipment corporation’s DECnet network”. The AI is surprising, the ending surreal.

 

(Verse 1)

Digital Equipment Corporation,

DECnet was your creation.

A suite of network protocols,

To connect your computers.

 

(Chorus)

DECnet, DECnet,

It was the best network around.

DECnet, DECnet,

It connected us all.

 

(Verse 2)

You could connect your PDP-11s,

To your VAX/VMS machines.

You could share files and printers,

And communicate with ease.

 

(Chorus)

DECnet, DECnet,

It was the best network around.

DECnet, DECnet,

It connected us all.

 

(Bridge)

But then the internet came along,

And DECnet fell out of favor.

But it will always be remembered,

As the network that connected us all.

 

(Chorus)

DECnet, DECnet,

It was the best network around.

DECnet, DECnet,

It connected us all.
