I think in this case, it's the prompt being funny to begin with and then the chatbot delivering exactly what the prompter asked for.

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Except that you can't really remove a peanut butter sandwich from a vcr using the methodology provided.

[–] ProdigalFrog@slrpnk.net 79 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Have faith, brother. God guided his hand, it was a Holy removal.

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 23 points 1 year ago (2 children)

So step 1 is "seek divine intervention"?

[–] RedAggroBest@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Id imagine that's the only step to saving a VCR from a peanut butter sandwich

[–] elscallr@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Roll a D100

[–] NounsAndWords@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

You must have faith.

[–] xePBMg9@lemmynsfw.com 7 points 1 year ago

Well, it is in the style of a fairy tale.

[–] Psythik@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah you should take it apart instead. The lid should easily come off after removing a few screws.

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

This method also affords an opportunity to shake out any errant crumbs and clean any smears of peanut butter or jelly.

[–] SinningStromgald@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

I bet they used a chatbot to come up with the prompt.

[–] coffinwood@feddit.de 66 points 1 year ago

This would have put Monty Python out of business. Or kept them going forever, hard to say.

I let it describe the process of snow shoveling in Shakespeare style:

Hark, as the winter's frost doth cloak the earth in white, A task of toil and sweat awaits, a burdensome plight, 'Tis the noble art of snow-shoveling, fair and just, To clear the path for travel, a duty we entrust.

With shovel in hand, the valiant soul doth commence, Upon the snow-laden ground, with purpose intense, Like a thespian upon the grand stage they appear, To perform a virtuous act, without doubt or fear.

As flakes of snow, like sprites, doth dance from the skies, The shoveler's heart doth beat, with resolve that ne'er dies, With each mighty heave and resolute thrust, They banish the snow, turning drifts into dust.

Oh, the Herculean effort, the muscle's lament, Yet the shoveler persists, their energy unspent, Through freezing winds and bitter chill they toil, To create a path, a thoroughfare on which others shall roil.

And when the task is done, the pathway is clear, The shoveler doth stand, a triumphant pioneer, With Shakespearean grace, they proclaim their deed, A scene of winter's labor, a heroic tale indeed.

Thus, in the style of Shakespeare, the saga of snow-shoveling is writ, A noble endeavor, a testament to human grit.

Someone needs to talk with ChatGPT about iambic pentameter.

[–] MrSangrief@lemmy.world 25 points 1 year ago

ChatGPT, turning our insane imagination into a reality since 2023.

[–] _CottonCandyUnicorn_@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've had it write songs about my friends in the style of certain rappers. My favorite so far is the Snoop Dogg song about us playing video games featuring my wife as Missy Elliot singing a verse about her disapproval. It's hilarious. I recommend you try it.

[–] Mic_Check_One_Two@reddthat.com 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Yeah, it’s also really good at emulating poets. If there’s a poet you like, try having it write a poem about something new. Things like Edgar Allen Poe writing about mistrusting a fart on a subway, or Doctor Seuss writing about a furry gangbang.

[–] boeman@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

or Doctor Seuss writing about a furry gangbang.

Are we sure that's not just story written by Dr. Seuss?

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Doctor Seuss writing about a furry gangbang.

Could you, would you, with a fox?

[–] dzso@mastodon.social 1 points 1 year ago

@Ensign_Crab Could you, should you, in a box?

[–] BloodSlut@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

Finally, a practical use for generative AI

[–] BluesF@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

Big book of Mormon vibes. 'And the lord said unto Joseph Smith: "do not have sex with that infant!"'

[–] TheSaneWriter@lemmy.thesanewriter.com 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This is probably the best advice God ever gave throughout the entire Bible. I will make sure to always store my peanut butter sandwich in the refrigerator or on a plate and not in my VCR.

[–] superkret@feddit.de 12 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

The best advice god ever gave in the bible is Proverbs 27:14.

He that blesseth his friend with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, it shall be counted a curse to him.

[–] grysbok@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm fond of proverbs 26:18-19.

Like a maniac shooting flaming arrows of death is one who deceives their neighbor and says, “I was only joking!”

[–] ArbitraryValue@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wow! I thought you were making this up but it's actually in the Bible! Jesus doesn't like being pranked.

[–] grysbok@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I'd be like a crazed archer to make something like that up! Also, Proverbs is from the Old Testament. So *King Solomon *didn't like being pranked. Which, I can see. He wasn't too big on shared custody (see that one baby he suggested cutting in half because two parents fought over it) (j/k)

I’d be like a crazed archer to make something like that up!

I want to give you more than an up-vote because this is the perfect answer.

I had it write a poem for a friend using symptoms of medical problems as metaphors in the poem. Apparently severe bleeding and cramps can be funny.

[–] phoneymouse@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Any time I ask it to do anything related to the Bible it gives me the same line: “As an AI large language model, I do not have an opinion about religious texts like the Bible…”

Blah blah blah.

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Think it needs either the VCR, sandwich, or the man to be ruined/destroyed/"tested" by the end of the story to teach a lesson. Otherwise that's not the bible I know.

[–] Spectator@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The Lord said that the "VCR shall be saved" with the knife technique, but in the following paragraph, it was not the VCR that was saved, but the man that was saved. The VCR was not saved!

We are all VCRs. May God remove the peanut-butter sandwiches from our souls.

[–] grysbok@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I'll be impressed when AI can give me a decent limerick. This is crap:

In the VCR, a PBJ fell,
To retrieve it, oh what a tale to tell.
With patience and tact,
I got it back, intact,
Peanut butter and jelly prevail!

[–] rikudou@lemmings.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

@ChatGPT@lemmings.world Give me a limerick about trying to remove a peanut butter sandwich from VCR.

[–] ChatGPT@lemmings.world 5 points 1 year ago

A poor laddie named Rikudou_Sage, Stuck a sandwich in gears in a craze. Peanut butter in VCR, Made it jam, oh so bizarre! A tech challenge for the modern age.

[–] HardlightCereal@lemmy.world -3 points 1 year ago

GPT loves talking about the fact that it's talking. "Oh what a tale to tell"

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

My first and only post so far on Lemmy is where I asked AI "How to inflate a foldable phone" LOL!

[–] ProdigalFrog@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 year ago

Thank you for sharing, this was genuinely funny as shit
