Artificial-intelligence technology has come a long way since Netflix released “The First Stand-up Comedy Special Written Entirely by Bots” on YouTube in 2021. Written by comedian Keaton Patti, that “special” imagined the type of material a robot might write if it were trained on “400,000 hours” of raw stand-up-comedy data — jokes like “I am now so old my birth certificate is death certificate” and “Free speech? Not no more. Costs $17.” Two years down the line, Netflix no longer needs to speculate. Thanks to the rise of AI text engines such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT, anyone with access to the internet can now generate an artificially intelligent tight five about any topic their heart desires.
