Funny you should ask this because I just launched https://www.learngpt.com, a site for browsing and sharing interesting ChatGPT examples.

Here's the launch thread, posted several minutes before you asked this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33923907

You'll find a lot of great examples on the site (and please share more as you find them).

I asked it to write a haiku about explosive diarrhea. It got the syllable count wrong a few times, but the haikus were incredible! I find the AI is especially good at combining random cultural elements into songs, poems, and stories. It is also good at matching the tone/voice of various authors (ie corporate-speak, the bible, a rap song, etc)

Bathroom once was clean

Now, explosive diarrhea

Chaos reigns supreme

I thought I was being clever asking it to write a haiku. Apparently I'm not as original as I thought. Syllable count was off too.

Write a haiku about an Irish mountain and a Spanish sailor.

Amidst the rolling hills

A Spanish sailor roams the land

Irish mountain stands tall
