A priest, a minister, and a rabbi walk into a bar. The bartender looks up and says, “What is this, a joke?” – ChatGPT’s attempt at writing humor. Does artificial intelligence have a sense of humor? Can ChatGPT change a writer’s process? Particularly humor writing? To the uninitiated, ChatGPT somehow “sterilizes” humor writing. That it’s incapable of understanding and creating entertaining humor. But nothing could be further from the truth. Whether it’s written by a gifted comedy writer or ChatGPT, creating great humor requires mastery of at least three key elements: Irony, Absurdity, and Wordplay. Elements that ChatGPT can’t appreciate…yet. Situations, where the outcome is unexpected or surprising, and can…

The Evolution of a Nursery Rhyme Or, how ChatGPT can impact your humor writing
So, let’s talk about how people feel about ChatGPT and similar AI models. It’s a mixed bag, really. On the one hand, a lot of people are amazed by the innovation and efficiency it brings. How it’s already changing the game in education, programming, content creation, customer service, and more. It’s like having a super-assistant who’s always ready to help you with learning and research. For writers, it can spark creative thinking in ways you’ve never imagined. On the other hand, there’s a bit of anxiety around AI possibly replacing human jobs, especially in creative fields where AI is now able to write entertaining jokes, articles, and screenplays as well…

Can ChatGPT Make You a Better Writer? Understanding and Embracing the Promise of Artificial Intelligence in Your Work
These days, technological marvels seem to pop up faster than you can say “Abracadabra!” Standing at the edge of innovation, even our smartphones become outdated before we even finish setting up our voicemail. And guess who’s leading the charge? None other than artificial intelligence, or AI, a digital wiz that’s both the apple of your eye and the monster under your bed. AI, the ultimate multitasker, can do things that usually require a human brain – like telling jokes (bad ones), understanding what you’re saying (even when you mumble), making life-altering decisions (like deciding which Netflix movie to watch), and deciphering languages (so you can finally understand your cat’s meows).…

The Sideways Realm of the Wordily Wonkaverse What is absurdism? A conundrum wrapped in a riddle and stuffed into a tuba.
Once upon an upside-down tea party, in the sideways realm of the Wordily Wonkaverse - a place where adjectives dined on verbs and metaphors rode unicycles - there thrived a gnarled tree called Absurdia that bore fruit of a peculiar variety: the preposterously delightful absurditastic literaturaniums. As an author-slash-dodo-whisperer, I’ve nibbled on the juicy and jumbled offerings of the Absurdia tree, and now, my dear befuddled reader, I invite you to join me on this rollercoaster of words, where we shall uncover the whizbang wonders of absurdist literature, or literaturaniums, in layman’s terms. A Wild Whirligig Through Absurdism in Literaturaniums Absurdia, the twisted tree that sprouts the strange fruits of literaturaniums, thrives on the…

Before a Night of Fripping Spittlestoat, catenaliggette and other secrets behind mastering the new age of contemporary writing
Five minutes after signing the contract, I dropped to the floor, gasping for air. Next to being waterboarded as a Vietnam POW, I could tell that editing this manuscript was going to be the most horrendous experience of my life: Inquiring my well-wishers, which is the deadliest mistake as inherently scheduled to jealousy or hawk eyesight on your wardrobe waiting for the garment to vomit out as not fitting towards them or due to impaired vision, will tell you a lie. After I stopped hyperventilating, I thought, well the next chapter can’t be that bad. It wasn’t. It was worse: Emotional detachment between us during manifested harmony in relationships was…
