    I mean they come up to ChatGPT on v3.5 (or Bard lmao) and expect it to write comedy?

    Yeah, these things are supposed to be good at writing, aren’t they?

      Define “good at writing”. Good comedy is very difficult to attain and none of the models are anywhere near it, including the more recent ones.

        I don’t want to.

        I concur.

            Dunno what you want me to say. Define the vague concept of “good writing”?

            The linked study finds that ChatGPT 3.5 and Bard suck at writing comedy. You claim in so many words that this should be obvious (along with a really dubious claim that machines can’t tickle people for some reason). I’m also not surprised that these models are terrible at writing comedy, because even at best of times I find their output bland, trite and crudely stripped of anything potentially divisive.

            However, lots of people seem to think that LLMs are good at writing related tasks, so I don’t think it’s inherently obvious that these tools suck at writing comedy in particular.

            All these words make this reply much less fun to write.

                    you can’t even sign off on your shitty posts to the degree that you’re now pretending it’s creepy to click a link and take a 5 minute scroll through your bullshit

                    it’s time for you and your shitty posts to leave

                  nah, there’s nothing creepier than giving some shithead the common courtesy of checking their post history to see if they’re somehow like this all the time or if they’re just having a particularly bad night

                  gonna be honest, I didn’t give this one that common courtesy cause once they get to the stage where they creepjacket other posters for looking at their previous terrible posts, whatever Reddit has done to their brain is severe and irreversible
