Where ChatGPT is going, all of that will be done for me by my agent in a few minutes of messaging back and forth while I'm multitasking.
Here's your itinerary for your European vacation.

ChatGPT is future. It is the best AI tool. I used multiple AI tools but the content it generated is amazing. Long story short it garnishes the content like human written content. :D

Someone got ChatGPT to write Steve Jobs selling a regular stick as if it's an Apple product. That was ok, but I thought i could dial that up a notch.

[Steve Jobs takes the stage to applause]
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the future of technology. I am excited to introduce to you our latest invention: the iStick. Now, I know what you're thinking, it looks like an ordinary stick you could find lying on the ground. But trust me, this is no ordinary stick.
This iStick is packed with three innovative features that will change the way you think about sticks forever. First, our iStick has built-in GPS capabilities. Imagine never getting lost on a hike again, or being able to track your dog's movements in the park.
Second, our iStick has a built-in camera. Capture stunning photos and videos of your adventures with just a click of a button.
And lastly, our iStick has wireless charging capabilities. Never worry about running out of battery again, just charge your iStick on the go.
But, as we continue to push the boundaries of technology, we've encountered some slight challenges with incorporating these features into the iStick.
First, we've had a few issues with the wireless charging capabilities, but we assure you that it will be available as an upgrade in the near future.
Next, we've had some trouble integrating the camera technology into the iStick, but rest assured that the iStick is "camera ready" and once we have the technology to do so, you will be able to capture stunning photos and videos with just a click of a button.
Lastly, we've had some challenges with connecting the iStick to GPS, but we are working diligently to solve these issues and bring you the ultimate outdoor companion.
In the meantime, the iStick is still a durable and lightweight companion perfect for poking things, holding doors closed, and serving as a walking stick. It's a great addition to any outdoor adventure, and it's perfect for those who love to explore the great outdoors.
And the best part? The price of the iStick is a mere $200. It's a small price to pay for such a revolutionary invention, and we are confident that you will love it. So, buy now and be a part of the future of technology. Thank you.
It took a lot of cajoling of ChatGPT to get the structure of the comedy right. It keeps wanting to do stuff like explain the entire punchline too early in the piece, or deflating each feature before upselling the next, when it's in fact important for the pacing of the joke that Steve Jobs upsells everything to the max, then only grudgingly admits each feature doesn't really exist, while also downplaying it.

To compare, a human-written Steve Jobs joke:

I remember the iRack bit. It seemed a bit off to me since i felt like there was no natural connection between Steve Jobs and the topic. I guess it's funny (a rare thing for MAD TV) but I guess it felt like it wasn't actually good satire, since good satire should say something about the actual content. Steve Job selling the Iraq War just didn't make sense as a concept I guess.

Chat GPT is bad at comedy. Every Seinfeld sketch I've asked it to generate is plausible, coherent, but lame (comedy level: 1950's)

I thought it was a great piece of satire because you could take a few different angles with it besides making fun of how the Bush administration sold the war. It makes you wonder how far people will follow a charismatic leader in the wrong direction before questioning it. What if Bush was as popular as Steve Jobs, would we all have cheered the war on like we did with Afghanistan? It's also a lesson, to apply the skills you've developed as a consumer to recognize shrewd salesmen in government.

Well I think the Steve Jobs one turned out ok, but to get that I really had to hammer ChatGPT over the head about what bit goes where, not to give away the punchline instantly, and the correct tone to maintain throughout the piece. So I more or less worked out the entire structure, how it flows etc, but got ChatGPT to glue the words together and write filler.
As for recent efforts, an Indian guy was asking about Indian jokes, because he tried to gen those and got ones about American Indians. He also asked it "write a joke about Indians" and got really bad jokes. But to show the important of context cues, here's something I generated in a single prompt, no regenning or reprompts. You get much higher quality content by creating context:

There are actually some ideas that land in there. This shows at least that quite a lot of it comes down to writing decent prompts.

EDIT: I also had a quick idea just now a put that through ChatGPT. I got it to help me with marketing an unmarketable product, but with an excessive amount of disclaimers:
Quote:
"Introducing Maggoty Meats, the premium smoke meat company with a name that's as bold as our flavors. But don't let the name fool you, our meats are anything but maggoty. We want to assure our customers that there are no maggots in our meats or in our production process.

"Maggoty Meats: Bold flavor, no maggots."

As for Seinfeld episodes, I'm not sure what level of prompts would improve the output in a similar way to the "Indian" thing I did above. I tried a few different things but i still have to keep reprompting the AI to change it, and it was up to me to find what was funny in it's ideas then basically tell it step by step how the ending should go. This was the final result, but rest assured anything remotely amusing in there were the ideas I got it to write:
(

It kept wanting to write three unconnected plots then have "and then they all met up and Monk's cafe at the end to talk about their day" as the plots "intersecting". However after the example plot, I got it to write new plots, and now it at least understands that the A,B,C plot threads need to intersect in actual scenes. But it doesn't understand that it needs to also be funny.
