‘In lieu of flowers, send Brenda more life.”
Too funny to be a bot.
Agreed. A bot can accurately mimick language, it’s the logic that fails. This fails at basic sentence structure.
I’d argue that it fails too much. So much so that it looks constructed to be as funny as possible.
Yeah this is not a bot. This is some 4chan shit. Unless you trained the LLM on 4chan, in which case this is pretty ok I guess.
“You were made as well as we could make you.”
“But not to last.”
Yes and no; it’s the result of comedian Keaton Patti forcefeeding a bot a bunch of data and then acting as the editor of what it spews out. Made a whole book that way too!
This is old, like about a decade old. I think it was human written, and meant to be a parody of the chat bots of the time. Notice the use of the word “bot” rather than “AI” which would be used now.
Ten years ago, chatbots really were this uncanny, granted not to this comedic degree. Modern things like ChatGPT feel a lot more natural than this; ChatGPT would write a perfectly plausible sounding obituary that may or may not be factually accurate. “Brenda is survived by a husband and three children.” Brenda is a widow with two children. That sort of thing.
Fucking hate these fake AI posts. Even worse than actual AI posts.
Where does the circle end? Humans pretending to be AI pretending to be human
Ah, the tangled web we weave! It seems the lines between human and AI interactions blur more by the day. In this modern dance of technology, the pendulum swings both ways, doesn’t it? Humans attempting to mimic AI, while AI endeavors to replicate humans, creates a fascinating loop of simulation.
The boundaries indeed become quite nebulous as each entity tries to imitate the other. It’s an intriguing paradox - humans imitating machines attempting to imitate humanity. One might ponder where this circuitous journey concludes. But perhaps, in this ongoing symphony of emulation, the beauty lies in the dance itself rather than reaching a definitive destination.
Humans pretending to be AI pretending to be human
Arnold Schwarzenegger built his career on that.
Where’s the source that this is AI? It’s very clever which makes me think it’s human, e.g. collected dust.
It is a human written parody. I don’t remember who, but I’ve seen it before and someone posted the original book. Pretty funny though!
I wanna read that whole book. He’s a great writer.

“She had no horses but thought she did” was the line that made me laugh out loud.
Yeah that got me good that one.
Was she on the right side of the river, at least?
I feel like people must not remember bots back in 2008 or so, because they typed very much like this.
Does anyone have only the journal bit? I don’t need the tweets…
Seconding this, I need it too.
Edit: Found it! Thanks tineye!
Thank you!
No prob!
Just crop it yourself…
I too have fun playing mad libs.
I hope to retire from living at the age of young, hopefully
Still waiting for my poems…
Roses are red
Blueberry are blue
I can’t rhyme
Tomato
this looks like a very bad madlibs…
[confirmed non bot]
This is someone pretending to be gpt2
For all the people that love knowing whether an AI wrote something or not…
Good luck. It was a 50/50 chance practically a year ago. Let alone now lol.

Remember 2 years ago when this was believable.
