Jokes made by AI lack(缺乏)creative thinking. It seems you can ask artificial intelligence (AI)programs anything, and they'll give you an answer. So, can they tell jokes?This question was raised by a UK comedian(喜剧演员)Karen Hobbs in one of her shows in June. Instead of the usual jokes she created, Hobbs told jokes written by ChatGPT.
When Hobbs asked ChatGPT for a joke, it gave one about a man joking about getting bored with his shopping-obsessed(痴迷于购物的)girlfriend. Even when she asked to tell it from a woman's perspective(视角), it was still a shopping-obsessed girlfriend but told in the first person
It's no surprise that many jokes by AI come from a man's perspective, as men are much more common in comedy. The BBC said that AI storytelling can only create stories based on what is already there
A good joke in real life can always change based on the audience's reaction(反应). This is a skill that often leads comedians to improvise(v. 即兴创作). That's something that AI can't do for now.
For example, in improvise(n. 即兴创作), comedians don't make preparations. They depend only on their natural reaction to the audience.
However, that could change. Research is being done to give Al a greater understanding of the world around it, which makes the future of AI jokes still uncertain.
