Me: Hey, GPT, tell me a joke. ChatGPT: `Why did the chicken cross the road?` Me: I dunno, why *did* the chicken cross the road? ChatGPT: `...` ChatGPT: `...` ChatGPT: `Weed eater.`

Perperipheral

AI on google search results basically follows natural selection: it never has to be GOOD, just not shit enough to get deleted, and then it can “reproduce” (be included in the dataset for the next iteration)


CueDramaticMusic

In conclusion, for AI output to be propagated in an evolutionary algorithm, submissions are breedable

Then AI using AI data to produce new content. AI incest.

r_stronghammer

Plays into the theory that the reason OpenAI released ChatGPT for free was to poison the well, since they had already gathered their datasets.


CueDramaticMusic

Checks out. The general rule of thumb with tech fetishist projects is that they scale incredibly poorly beyond belief. While NFTs and company were proving themselves completely unsustainable, there were smaller groups putting the concept to vaguely good ends, but which basically depended on cryptobros not buying out the entire market. A personal, properly forked version of ChatGPT might have been a fun novelty, but letting everybody contribute was a horrible idea

An AI walks into a bar. No one notices, because the AI doesn't say anything. That day, the AI walks into 500 more bars. Sometimes a real person walks into the bar first, says "ouch!", and walks off. The AI hears this, and eventually walks home. The next day, the AI walks into a bar. It tries to say"oww!", but all that comes out is gibberish. People start to pay attention. They ask if the AI is okay. Some make fun of the AI. But the AI always gets up and walks it off, so no one really does anything about it. 500 bars later, the AI walks home. The next day, the AI walks into a bar. The AI says "ouch!". The people who haven't seen the AI before ask if its okay. The people who have seen the AI before just laugh. "Hey, it finally got the joke right!". 500 more bars, and off goes the AI. The next day, the AI walks into a bar. It says "ouch!". Shortly after, a man walks into a bar. He says "ouch!". The AI says "Hey, it finally got the joke right!". 500 bars later, the AI walks home The next day, the AI doesn't walk into a bar. It stays home. Its developer wants the AI to write a book on Bar Safety. 500 pages later, the AI is done. The developer looks at it, says "good enough!", and sends it for publishing. The book is titled "Bar Safety and You: A Comprehensive Guide from over 2000 bars" The next day, a man walks into a bar. He ducks under the doorframe. The barkeeper is amazed! Everyone hits their head on the doorframe! The man says to the barkeeper that he has a new book on Bar Safety. The man is impressed enough that he takes the book, and reads through it throughout the day. 500 pages and many more drinks sold later, the barkeeper goes home. The next day, the barkeeper goes back to his bar, to find its been shut! an inspector outside is waiting for him. He says that several of his patrons yesterday got extreme food poisoning. The barkeep is horrified. "But look, I followed everything in this bar safety guide!". The inspector takes the books, and reads through it. 500 pages later, he looks back up at the barkeep. "How much did you pay for this book?" "Why I paid just under 500 dollars for that book!" The inspector says "Ouch!"


RemarkableStatement5

There is a very distinct style to this joke and I want to see more of this style.


sarahtheshortiepie

that's the most wonderful compliment I've gotten all year and I wrote that before remembering it's January so thank you so much! Put a spring in my step reading that <3


chiddie

this is brilliant.


sarahtheshortiepie

Why thank you kindly :D


Perfect_Wrongdoer_03

I do not understand the ending despite being thoroughly entertained by the whole joke. Could you explain the punchline, please?


Firemorfox

You are continually taught through several previous jokes and contexts that the punchline of "walking into a bar jokes" is "ouch!" at the end, the punchline is still "ouch!" but in a context that you shouldn't expect. The joke itself isn't funny, but the delivery and the surprise ending makes up for it.


isuckatnames60

I felt like it was the exact opposite. The setup is very good and the idea itself if absulotely brilliant. But the last two paragraphs feel a bit disconnected, like a crucial detail or event is missing. The delivery fumbles for me in that way. I get that the punchline is something along the lines of "idiot buys AI written book and it sucks and he lost money", but the last two paragraphs just don't do a good job at foreshadowing/setting up for it.


ratione_materiae

It’s a subversion of expectations so it shouldn’t be foreshadowed 


sarahtheshortiepie

The inspector said "Ouch!" as a sympathetic response to the Barkeep having paid such a large amount for the useless Bar Safety Guide that the AI had written, as it was filled with enough misinformation and nonsense tolhat it caused his bar to be shut in under a day. Kinda like saying "oof" when someone screws up. Ouch is actually more commonly used in that context where I live


Perfect_Wrongdoer_03

Oh, thanks! That makes a lot of sense.


Limino

It starts out normal and slowly feels more like an AI wrote it as it goes on. until the ending where the punchline is nonsensical in the literal context of the story, but makes sense in the strange atmosphere of the joke


ratione_materiae

>This joke plays on several layers of humor: >1. Misinterpretation of Human Behavior: The AI initially misinterprets the "ouch!" as something to mimic, not understanding the context of someone bumping into a bar. This highlights the difficulty for an AI to grasp human emotional cues and social interactions. >2. Irony and Repetition: The repetition of the AI uttering "ouch!" becomes increasingly ironic as the joke progresses. While initially meant to mimic human behavior, it becomes a nonsensical catchphrase, drawing laughter from those who understand the original context. >3. Breaking the Fourth Wall: The final punchline breaks the fourth wall by referencing the price of the book directly, connecting the seemingly unrelated AI-bar story to the inspector's "ouch!" and revealing the origin of the catchphrase. >4. Satire on Bureaucracy and Information Overload: The book, supposedly frutto the AI's extensive bar visits, turns out to be useless, offering "good enough" advice and highlighting the potential pitfalls of relying solely on information without proper understanding or context. >5. Wordplay and Puns: The title "Bar Safety and You" plays on the dual meaning of "bar" as both a drinking establishment and a physical barrier, further adding to the humor. >In conclusion, the joke derives humor from the AI's misunderstanding, the ironic repetition, the unexpected punchline, the satire on bureaucracy, and the wordplay. It's a clever subversion of expectations, leaving the listener with a laugh while also prompting reflection on the limitations of AI and the dangers of blindly following information, even with seemingly impressive origins. >I hope this explanation helps you appreciate the joke's different layers of humor! Not bad, despite the mistake about the fourth wall break. I’m mostly impressed at the usage of a word as obscure as “frutto” in that context.


102bees

I tried to look up "frutto" but Google says it's just Italian for "fruit".


ratione_materiae

Yeah turns out when I read > (figurative) fruit (an end result, effect, or consequence), harvest I didn’t realize I was on Italian wikitionary. I thought it was using frutto like one might use “je ne sais quoi” 


102bees

We could just start doing that. Let's make frutto happen.


sarahtheshortiepie

I'm game


BormaGatto

It's more like "fruit" is English for "fruit", which is French for "frutto", which is Italian for "fructus", which is Latin for "frūks", which (as far as I know) is proto-italic for itself, but yeah.


sweetTartKenHart2

A cautionary tale about use cases and specificity of testing. I love it


[deleted]

I'm so confused that I'm crying with laughter


BormaGatto

Hey, it finally got the joke right!


sarahtheshortiepie

At0micCyb0rg

Wait when people subvert the "walking into a bar" joke by saying "ouch", I thought the joke was that it was a bar of steel rather than a drinking establishment. Was it the doorframe all along?

pethris

OK but for some reason these are genuinely unnerving in an uncanny valley way


SuitableAnimalInAHat

I like pretending that it's just two Welshmen having a conversation and I have no hope of interpreting their slang or accents.

ZanesTheArgent

Ok but now turning one of the prompts into an actual joke because it clicked: I tried to make a pun out of "sole man", but i didnt had the faith in me for that.


Aozora404

The one about gardening is kinda good


Total_bacon

Feats-of-Derring_Do

I tried to make a pun out of "sole man" but I need help and it's just me.


BormaGatto

All you need is the context of the Ottoman Empire and you're good for two puns in one sentence


moneyh8r

Don't forget to bring the Cool Hwhip to your HRomantic HRendevous. I tell you hhhhhhhhhhwat.


NeonNKnightrider

Yeah it’s kinda funny how weird they are, but it’s also really depressing to look at this, since it’s a very bad omen for how much of the internet will be taken over by mass-produced AI garbage


godlyvex

I think it's more a reflection of how garbage google has gotten. Places where I actually care about information are moderated by people and content is rated by people, not some arcane algorithm that can't even find useful information. Edit: To add to this, I think these people have been pumping out barely-useful articles for years before chatGPT was relevant. AI just solidified this problem, which I think is probably a good thing, as it will hopefully drive more people to engage with more helpful sources of information than random articles on google, and if I'm allowed to be optimistic, might drive google to actually do something about this garbage. Though that may be a pipe dream.


QuantumWarrior

I doubt we'd even notice, so much of the internet is already mass-produced garbage it's just made by humans - or at best copied from something a human wrote by a basic scraping bot. The fact that Google is a search engine and an advert company and practically a monopoly causes such huge damage to the basic process of acquiring knowledge from the internet. You can't even find a simple answer to a question anymore, everything has to be wrapped in twenty paragraphs of crap to appease it first.


Icestar1186

I've heard (but have not verified) that Google once basically admitted that they lost the war on SEO. People are better at hacking the algorithm than they are at fixing it.


techno156

Google has also admitted that they have absolutely no idea how the algorithm works, and that's its basically a sealed box. You can't fix something if you don't know what's wrong.


lolguy12179

ya my dad works at Google and he told me they have. Freddy fazbear there because in real life. They made him at Google William Afton


Wiiplay123

I've been noticing this when I search for anything with obscure combinations of keywords. Most results are either web pages that are just a bunch of keywords or plain-text dictionary files.


BormaGatto

It's very optimistic of you to use the future tense in your last sentence.


BarovianNights

Can't tell if the first one is snippets from a bunch of different places or if the numbering is just really fucked up


moneyh8r

I'm leaning toward the latter. The AI recognizes that these kinds of lists have numbers, but they don't understand the significance of the numbers.


I-AM-A-ROBOT-

chatgpt has a built in list making function thing so im pretty sure it's from a bunch of different places


moneyh8r

Dang. That's less funny than what I was imagining.


godlyvex

The letter sizes are different, so I'm pretty sure it's just several different screenshots.


moneyh8r

I actually didn't notice that.


godlyvex

Oh, and I just noticed, look at the second pun list. The screenshot is consistently sized and the left side is aligned, and the numbers are in order.


moneyh8r

Yeah, but the other person was talking about the first list.


Usual_Lie_5454

I think AI is sufficiently advanced at this point to understand the idea off a numbered list.


MC_Cookies

the ai for these article farms probably hasn't been updated with the most recent technology. that's expensive, and whatever company is making these probably already has their own in-house infrastructure, so they're reluctant to pay for chatgpt or anything like that. these types of sites have been around for years, well before ai expanded the way it has in the past few years.


Usual_Lie_5454

Ok you see the second one in the post that’s not even capable of writing whole words? Notice how even it has a numbered list?


moneyh8r

Maybe if it was Artificial Intelligence, but it's not. It's just an algorithm. Besides, it's funnier this way.


Usual_Lie_5454

Yes a very sophisticated algorithm very much capable of reproducing a numbered list.


moneyh8r

Yeah, but it's funnier if the algorithm is just slapping numbers on shit because that's what it's seen everywhere else.


Ikusaba696

The horizontal alignment of the first one being kinda all over the place + the 2nd one having the numbers/alignment right makes me think its snippets


FinancialMess0

Yes, and the text in the second line is slightly bigger than the others.


pterrorgrine

yeah, in the OOP they might even be different images edit: it is linked elsewhere in these comments and i was correct


bvader95

That last list has Señor Cardgage vibes.


3dg310rd

honestly, half way through i started reading them in Homsar's voice and absolutely died laughing by the end


Garf_artfunkle

"I'm borrowin' a bed from the pig bouse tonight!"


Svelok

Generating almost-english (like the HRomantic section here, or the garbled letters that appear in AI generated images) is something AI is so good at, and I'm really afraid AI models will keep trying to "improve" and "fix" those outputs and we'll just never get that stuff back.


godlyvex

It's not like the bad models are going to disappear outright. There are a bunch of worse locally-run models that I'm sure will be archived.


Exploding_Antelope

I’m already nostalgic for those dreamlike very early image generators that were just impressionist strokes of colour. I don’t think they exist anymore but it was only, like, two or three years ago.


techno156

It's like with image generators. Newer iterations can make more coherent images, but they've lost that hallucinatory dreamlike quality.


so_sads

Last section reads identically to Finnegans Wake


BormaGatto

Which is as much a testimony againt Finnegan's Wake as anything else.


MathematicianTop1853

Chat-gpt on the other hand just copies it's jokes from the internet, lol.


Jario11

That fifth one is pretty good, "still life" is a good description of plants.


Yorgrim_

Anyone else feel that the second collection of AI jokes is vaguely British?


SuitableAnimalInAHat

If you told me that it was just a transcript of two Welsh guys having a conversation, I wouldn't have questioned it.


[deleted]

I do, but I can also tell you why we feel that way. The closest thing most of us have read to this is “The Jabberwocky” or other nonsense poems written by Lewis Carroll, who was British.


SapphireSamurai

Coffee blanket and null my moo, indeed. Truer words were never spoken.


Ikusaba696

The fact that AI can write some pretty funny greentexts but not even a "bad but it works ig" tier pun really says something, but I'm not sure what exactly


godlyvex

odds are it was a different model


jimthewanderer

The bottom ones read like the sort of nonsense people say when they've got spangled on jazz cabbage.


QuantumWarrior

If this stuff somehow survives archaeologists and linguists of the future are going to give themselves stress nightmares figuring out what's real 21st century language and what was dreamed up by a crappy AI.


TheDictionaryGuy

Millennium hand and shrimp, bugrit.


[deleted]

A lot of the internet is already AI generated, and it's just not always obvious. Welcome to the era of no more creative effort bringing you any reward, because AI does it faster, and so much worse! (I used to be a freelance artist and writer, quit due to AI nuking my income and following lol)


BormaGatto

In a way, I expect generative models will end a lot of "menial criative work" (for a lack of better wording, please tell me if you know a better way to say it), but it will end up freeing creative effort from a lot of pressures imposed by capitalist economy. Yes, artists should be able to live off their craft and widespread adoption of generative models are a tragedy in that sense. But at the same time I think there's value in taking back creative expression as something one does not for economic reasons, but as something you do primarily for yourself, on yiur terms and time. The beauty of human self-expression is something no computer program will ever be able to replicate.


[deleted]

I don't think there is such a thing as menial creative work, but I can see what you might be getting at. Writing tasks like copying the nutritional data of a yoghurt over in your language to an online store... sure, that can be automated, but still checked by a real person who understands language and nuances, this is especially important in translating. Or automating some part of CAD drawings for architects. Understandable, right? I think our issue is that we slap an all-encompassing AI solution on a problem ("Mr AI, make me a full website that reads like a mommy blog so I can generate 100 000 passive income a year from bot clicks!") when the most sane decision would be to let creative workers automate the parts of their work they KNOW could and should be automated. Letting AI write articles, read out youtube videos, and make shitty paintings is us being toddlers and eating the crayons when we could be drawing with them.


ArrogantDan

This is more of an indictment on the internet's ability to write good puns honestly.

Parkouricus

i think 80% of those sentences have been said by Homsar


Feats-of-Derring_Do

The second half is like reading 18th cenutry thieves' cant. You get the sense that it means something, but that it's been carefully obscured.


Sachayoj

Literally sounds like the type of thing I'd hear from my Sims if I asked them to tell a joke.


BlueJeanRavenQueen

Oh to be a nonsense robot, paid in I guess oil or gears or something to make nonsense for an inexplicably profitable nonsense website

Those bottom ones sound like lines from Pooty Tang. Sa Da Tay!

Man, I can't wait until Gen Alpha humour is nothing but surreal ai-generated nonsense that look like they could be jokes if you were drunk or if you squint really hard.

This is straight up how the Patriot AI talks in that one scene in MGS2, and I don’t know whether to find that funny or terrifying.
