How long before these models actually produce funny outcomes on a regular basis? Many people think we're going to see a quick explosion of improvement, but I think we're still many years away from these models actually understanding language. I could be wrong, but wondering what you all think

Mine was this:

Prompt: "Two dogs walk into a bar"

Zinger:

"The bartender says, "What would you like?" The dogs say, "We're fine, thanks."

"After three whiskeys, the first dog says to the second, "Hey, you're alright."

"The first one says, “I’ll have a gin and tonic”. The second dog says, “I’ll have whatever he’s having.”

Heh-larry-ous.

Prompt: "A Spaniard, a German, and a Brit enter a bar."

Response: "The Spaniard says, 'We must get out of the EU.' The German says, 'We must get out of the EU.' And the Brit says, 'I'll have a pint, thanks'".

I mean, it might not be funny, but _it is_ funny.

Something about the way that the answers all have the rhythym of punchlines but rarely make sense unless it seems to be by accident is a lot of fun

I feel like that’s how most jokes are created. Your brain spits out random punchlines until one triggers your funny neurons. Recognizing which punchline is funny seems to be beyond the AI at this point.

> A man had two daughters.

> He decided to name the first "Lavender." The second he named "Lavender 2: Electric Boogaloo."

Maybe I have a sense of humor of a 12-year-old, but this one made me chuckle.
