What even is the point of doing stand up comedy if you use an AI to make up your jokes? If you use AI for your stand up material you should just put the laptop on stage and let it read the jokes in the Microsoft robot voice lol

apparently a couple of the DeepMind guys do a standup routine with AI, but they make the AI the hook for the show. Don't know if there are videos online.

Nah, the extra absurdity of using Microsoft SAM might unintentionally make something actually funny.

Stuck in my brain: I used to work at a dating site for Indian people, and one of the things we tried was "LLM-generated pickup lines."

I don't remember most of them and we never made the feature public, but one of them sticks out in my mind for being the most incomprehensible.
