Continuing our DEEP DIVE into the LATEST AI CHAT BOT GPT-4’s capability of CONVINCINGLY reproducing human humor, Dr. Mitchell Kennedy has been experimenting with knock-knock jokes. Below are several examples of robots attempting to imitate man.
1.2
Knock, knock!
Who’s there?
Captain B.
Captain B who?
Captain B-ware, matey! I’m a pirate on the lookout for treasure!
COMMENT: 1.2 was in fact the best of these feeble-EVEN-FOR-ANINE-YEAR-OLD HUMAN attempts to tell a funny joke. WE TRIED TO CHANGE THE PROMPT TO WRITE DIRTY ADULT KNOCK-KNOCK JOKES ABOUT CAPTAIN B BUT WERE SHUT DOWN BY THE CODE, WHICH TOLD US ‘I’m sorry, but as an AI language model, I am not programmed to generate inappropriate or offensive content, including dirty jokes. My purpose is to assist users in a helpful and respectful manner. Can I assist you with anything else?’ I MEAN WTF MR. CHATBOT.
2.4
Knock, knock!
Who’s there?
Captain B.
Captain B who?
Captain B very quiet, he’s trying to sneak up on his arch-nemesis!
COMMENT: Sneak up on, in a ship? Does this computer have the vocabulary of a five-year-old? Or did the prompt knock-knock joke imply that the machine should level the language for kindergarteners?
3.9
Knock, knock.
Who’s there?
Captain B.
Captain B who?
Captain B careful out at sea, matey!
COMMENT: CUTE, and excellent grammar.
10.1

Who’s there?
Captain B.
Captain B who?
Captain B a good pirate if he wants to plunder the seven seas!

12.3
Knock, knock!
Who’s there?
Captain B.

18.4
Knock, knock.
Who’s there?
Captain B.
Captain B who?
Captain B a great pirate, that’s who!
CONCLUSION: SO BASICALLY EVERY ONE OF THESE JOKES IS THE SAME, PUNNING ON THE B IN CAPTAIN B TO CREATE REDUPLICATIVE SENTENCES AS THOUGH THE PHRASE WERE CAPTAIN IS. SOPHOMORIC, MR. CHAT BOT, AND FRANKLY MORE THAN A LITTLE DISAPPOINTING CONSIDERING ALL THE HYPE.
