June 18, 2024

Are you feeling the strain of these tough times? If so, you’re not alone. With critical cases now before the Supreme Court, it’s clear that we can’t always trust the justices to make the right decisions for us. This uncertainty highlights an important truth: it’s up to all of us as individuals to stand up for our rights. If we don’t, who will? The responsibility to protect our freedoms falls on our shoulders, and we must remain vigilant and proactive. Let’s dive into eight important cases that are currently under review by the Supreme Court, and why it’s crucial for each of us to take a stand to defend our…

Where’s ChatGPT’s Sense of Humor? AI's Unfunny Reality

January 15, 2024

If you’re as old as I am (which is pretty dang old) you might remember a simple book of games called Madlibs. The object was simple: the “writer” would taunt the players into blindly supplying nouns, adjectives, names of famous people, etc. with no idea how they were going to be used. The writer would plug them into blanks in a story, and the fun began. It only took 65 years for the concept to migrate into ChatGPT. One of the things I enjoy most about humor writing with ChatGPT is matching pairs of diverse items with unrelated stories. Then sit back and wait for the action. Just Like Madlibs.…

Does Artificial Intelligence Have a Sense of Humor? How ChatGPT can help improve a humor writer’s process

January 13, 2024

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

November 22, 2023

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

November 6, 2023

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).…
