In an overheard anecdote, Tom Costello gets better creative writing from Fable by reframing the prompt as a coding problem

@DKThomp eight-word reply, disqualified

@DKThomp

@smehmood @DKThomp "Introduced myself to Mom again today" was written by a human and merely reproduced by A.I., presumably from training data.

@DKThomp Looks like you havent tweeted about SpaceX in months

I guess theyre not really a big Abundance story lol

@DKThomp We are physically hardwired for that joke in a way that AI can only simulate.

@DKThomp “Introduced myself to Mom again today” hits 100x harder to me? Evokes the pain of caring for a parent with Alzheimer’s

Human joke is recycled and unoriginal

@benobose @smehmood @DKThomp I confess I was skeptical, but yes:

@smehmood @DKThomp ironically it's the LLM output that is recycled and unoriginal here (literally just lifted verbatim from a forum post somewhere), whereas the joke, aside from being funny on its face, has layers that clearly escape you

@DKThomp Ngl, definitely read your tweet as “human remains undefeated”. I needed to do a triple take.

@DKThomp It’s about time someone brought back “your mom” jokes.

@DKThomp By telling the most recycled joke of all time?

@smehmood @DKThomp it’s not a joke?

@DKThomp Anything else happening today?

@DKThomp Boo, that's eight words.

@DKThomp i need to ✉️ u but cant

@DKThomp too bad it wasn't six words

@GeoTwit4 @DKThomp Look we’re not all perfect

@krishnanrohit I love this. ♥️

@DKThomp Its certainly not the most important thing about the spacex ipo

But then again, this isnt actually my beat. You know whose beat this is?

Lol its so easy not to be this big of a political hack
