    I think this is the first time I’ve knowingly laughed at a model’s joke.

      In the olden days when the text-davinci models would just wholesale make shit up they did some pretty funny completions.

      An early ChatGPT model made me a pretty funny track list for my imaginary Indian cover band The Needful Dead. It's no longer in my chat history though so clearly Sam retconned anything his models did that could be considered racist.

      Reminds me of the very early LlMs. I also sometimes miss the sheer demented horror of early image models told to generate images of biology.

        Good times. My best remembered examples are the bottomless pit supervisor (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;knowyourmeme.com&#x2F;memes&#x2F;bottomless-pit-supervisor" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;knowyourmeme.com&#x2F;memes&#x2F;bottomless-pit-supervisor) and the model being told to generate a screaming hot soup.
