Claude.AI:
Here's a humorous scene about people discussing the potential for funny AI:
INT - OFFICE - DAY
Two coworkers, JEN and DAVID, are chatting by the water cooler.
JEN Did you hear they're trying to create AI with a sense of humor?
DAVID Seriously? A funny robot comedian?
JEN Yeah, some tech company claims they've programmed it to understand jokes and tell its own.
DAVID That seems...ambitious. I can't imagine a robot actually being funny.
JEN I know, humor is such a human thing. But maybe with machine learning and big data it could work.
DAVID I feel like the first shows would be pretty rough. Knock-knock jokes and bad puns.
JEN "Why did the robot cross the road? To get to the other side!" You're right, it would be terrible!
They both laugh.
JEN Well, maybe someday artificial intelligence will get there. But for now, just leave the jokes to the humans.
DAVID Yeah, robots should stick to calculus - leave the comedy to professionals like us!
They laugh again and fist bump as the scene ends.
Ok, this is a bit worse than I thought. Curious to see what GPT4 would do.
Throw a few canned laughs in there and it'd be on-par with half the crap they churn out today honestly. Most sitcom humor is character A snarking character B, pause with ugly looks at each other while the laughs play. Rinse and repeat.
@[email protected] Write a short scene in a sitcom where two characters in the office (Jen and David) are discussing the potential for an AI with a sense of humour.
INT. OFFICE - DAY
JEN, an optimistic coder, sits at her desk cluttered with markers, notepads, and a laptop. DAVID, a skeptic software engineer, leans against her cubicle partition.
JEN: You know, I've been thinking, what if we make an AI with a sense of humour?
DAVID: (laughs) Jen, we're not writing a sitcom here. We're coding an AI, an actual Artificial Intelligence.
JEN: I mean, why not? Our AI could make people laugh while solving their problems. They'd love it.
DAVID: That's like asking a toaster to tell you a joke when it pops your bread.
JEN: (grinning) Wouldn't that be awesome, though!
DAVID: (rolls his eyes) Trust you to find the fun in a toaster...
JEN: But seriously, imagine an AI with a good sense of humour. Would not only make our day-to-day work more enjoyable, but it might make people less resistant to AI technology.
DAVID: It's a nice idea, Jen. But humour is a complex human trait. I mean, I can't even understand half of your puns.
JEN: (laughs) Well, that's because they're too 'advanced' for you, David!
DAVID: (grins) And there we go, a taste of how bizarre AI humour could get.
They both chuckle as Jen goes back to her coding and David walks off, shaking his head but smiling.
