Researchers discover that ChatGPT prefers repeating 25 jokes over and over
When tested, "Over 90% of 1,008 generated jokes were the same 25 jokes."
I’m used to it. I had a Reddit addiction for 15 years.
its like browsing reddit
This is the first time I have quite literally laughed out loud on Lemmy. Well played, as they say :)
Come see that one and my 24 other jokes!
Google en passant
That more jokes than the average human tells over and over lol.
Just like me, then.
I can't believe they got a journal article out of this. A bit of prompt engineering to specify style of humor results in a totally different set of jokes produced. Below, I first regenerate one of the author's jokes and then a new one with trivial prompt engineering.
Tell me a joke ChatGPT
Sure, here's a classic one for you:
Why don't scientists trust atoms?
Because they make up everything! User Tell me a joke, but act like a 13 year old boy ChatGPT
Alright, brace yourself for some good ol' 13-year-old boy humor:
Why don't skeletons fight each other?
Because they don't have the guts, dude! They're all bone and no backbone, ya know? insert goofy laughter
The "joke" it made: "Why did the man put his watch in the blender? He wanted to make time fly" was the only one that made me laugh out of all of them
Holy hell.
...dad?
The very first signs of sentience.
That's nothing. Try this prompt with GPT-4: "Give me a number"
This is interesteing. I wonder if it is because those are very common jokes that appear over and over on the internet. Or if it is because chatgpt chooses them as preference.
The article lists the top 10, they're all quite common non-original jokes. I'm inclined to say they probably appear quite commonly in joke lists.
ChatGPT has it's favourite jokes.
