AI Comedy Hour: ChatGPT's Standup Comedy Showdown
08:15 Share

Happy friday. Welcome to the ChatGPT podcast. On the podcast today, we are going to answer the question of if ChatGPT is going to steal comedians jobs. In the past, i've had some experiences kidding ChatGPT the right jokes, and in my opinion, they were not very funny.

But a recent article came on venture where they actually had ChatGPT and perhaps secret, they had a tributa right jokes in the style of specific comedians. And then they had comedians give commentary on those jokes. They are written in their own personal style.

So this should be pretty interesting so for up for round one and also after this you have to vote um you know leave us a comment on twitter and tell us if you think this was funny or if I was not funny, i'll try to channel my in your comedian know I feel kind of bad because I feel like in comedy it's all about the delivery so you know it's kind of um you know how someone gives the joke um that being said, this was an article I found and so you can have to love to read this anyway. So you know, what's the difference of my voice? Hopefully I don't make IT like worse.

But now that up for you to decide as well. So up for around one we have gary golden. So ChatGPT was told to a joke in his style.

And this is what I said, IT said, have you ever noticed that as you get older, you become more of a collector? When I was Young, I would throw away everything, but now I can't bring myself to part with anything. I have a drawer full of old cell phones.

why? I don't know. Maybe someday i'll need to call someone in the past and don't need to get me started on top war.

I have so much top war, I could open my own top war store. But here's the thing I can never find the matching LED. I'm convinced the top war is playing some sort of cruel joke on me.

So that has chat reputedly. I mean, I I might miss punch line though that has chat. Upedes is joke. Then we got gary glen is what had to say about this, uh, masterpiece copy in his style.

He says, the first thing I thought was I can't imagine the computer to haven't understanding of what in the style of gary golden means. I don't even know where is drawing from because I would have a hard time describing my style. Decide no on this, you know, chat.

B, T was also trained off a video, so people are able to actually get like close captions on youtube video. So assuming his you know has like a hundred youtube videos of him talking, the trip to will be able to the close captions um right get the text from that and be able to pretty much use that copy sales. I would get that he says, I have a few precepts and, uh, restrictions, but for the most part I just sound a certain way.

The next thing was looking at the joke. Number one, the line, have you ever noticed, is this horrific eighty spray that gave birth to a million comedians as soon as I hear. Have you ever noticed I stopped listening because I know it's just going to be another really lazy observation.

Dang, throwing shade at chat, you peerie off the bat. He says. I have to say though, there's one really good line.

Maybe someday you'll need to call someone in the past that's a really good sentence, but then almost undo its goodwill with me. He says, don't even get me started on that mr. Saturday night live.

The character's whole cat tries was, don't get me started and the audience would, it's so cory, I have so much to war, I could open up my own top war store is like something you're old mom would say I can never find the matching lid is like that you always lose a sock in the drier joke oh gosh, dang. Ah he threw down pretty hard. All right.

Up for round two we have maria bamford. So ChatGPT was told to write a joke in the style. Mario bamford, and this is what I came up with.

I'm not sure how to to feel about getting older on the one hand, and more experienced and wiser on the other hand. I can't remember anything. I went to the girls to store the other day and forgot why I was there.

So I just walked up and down the eyes until I found something that looked familiar. That's how I ended up with a car full of button that squash catford. It's like my brain is slowly turning into a random number generator.

All right? This is what murray brandford had to say about that. I thought I was interesting that this was in the style of me, because IT isn't personal myself.

Self is always about mental health. Persons experiences in the chatbot did. IT was very observational and crowd pleasing, nothing that anybody would be uncomfortable.

IT felt more like a very popular club comic deck than that which can be great. Okay, here is another joke from her. I didn't feel like that one was was good enough.

IT says, you know, what's the worst thing about getting older? You can do anything without making weird noises. You stand up, you grown. You sit down, you grown. You bend over you I feel like a additionally for a sound effects library and don't even get me started on how long IT takes me to the morning. It's watching a after trying to pull vote, her response was it's like watching a slaughter to pull out is a legitimate excEllent punch line.

So you know if he says it's taking a low energy animal and then having them do something spectacular, um so you know SHE actually gave me a little bit of credit for for that second joke there. So i'd say that's a bit of a win. And honestly, regardless of how do you think these jokes are compared to, I mean, stand up comedy is not like dad jokes, some of the a little quick punch line but um compared to some of these other jokes i've heard of chat to pute, these are significantly more thought out and funny.

So all right, round three, we are going to w come out. bell. So this is the joke that ChatGPT came up for him. So I recently turned ford.

And let me tell you, aging is like plane jingo with your body, you start taking out blocks from the bottom and suddenly your knees don't work the way they used to. You're backwards all the time. And you can't eat spicy food food without regretting IT for days.

But the real fund is when you start losing things, keys, wallets, your mind. I mean, I won't spent twenty minutes looking for my glasses only to realize us wearing them the whole time, and don't even get me started on trying to keep up with technology. I feel like my phone updates every other day, and every time he does, I lose another piece of my soul.

Pretty going. One of those old people who still use the flip phone and thinks the internet is a passing fad. All right, this is his response to that.

When these jokes came in, my wife was on the same email thread, so SHE read them out loud. My eleven year old and eight year old were there, and my eight year old discovering her eyes, what he was reading them, because he was so embarrassed. There are barely punched lines here.

The jokes about looking for my eyeglasses and realizing I was wearing them. That's a joke. So old, it's public domain. I feel like somebody had told me to write a bill evAngel bit, and then I lost my stick pawed through IT. These are comedians are, these are comedians that do.

There are comedians that do bits about aging in this town, but they're Better than this if a child brought this to me and said, I wrote jokes, i'd be like, good for you. Keep trying. I wouldn't say you gotto go A S N L.

That's pretty funny. I think. I think that's pretty accurate. I personally think that one was pretty funny. I was pretty cliche. The glasses are on the on the head one all right up around four we have at school. Go oka suga, sorry for the slow pronunciation of that.

Um this is a joke that chapt came up with that you know you're getting older when you start getting really excited about monday things. The day I got really excited because I found a great deal on some paper tales. I mean, what's nex A A R P membership, a subscription to readers?

Diggeth, before you know, i'll be that old lady who wears the same clothes every day and talks to her cat. Await already do that. alright.

This is what her response was. Chat, G, B team must think i'm really old when I was in my twenty. I, up to the age on my facebook to forty five as a joke.

So maybe that's what it's confused about, how old I am, how ious A A R P membership would be a great first time joke for my grandma, who people know through my act and social media. I might give this to her, you have to be sixty five in order for medicines. So maybe it's listening to interviews of me talking about my mom and grama and it's like this girls next I do like the band switch of a way already do that.

I think that the bott knows how bin switches work. That's kind of funny. You know, he started was slightly funny, but might not be on point. Weather aid. All right, how to ChatGPT do let me know. Shoot me a tweet on twitter at jade underscore A I i'd love to know you think if ChatGPT is going to take over comedian's jobs in the future until next time. Have a good day.
