That's funny because I've been trying to figure out chatGPT's humour parameters and found that it OFTEN uses play on words when appropriate. I find that it will typically hyphenate the play on words. If you try pun-in-ten-did it will likely figure it out.
One of the most hilarious things chatGPT came up with was a "standup routine about something that is normal in school but absurd in the real world" and it went on a tirade about "Imagine if we had a grading system in real life? Like what if your partner gave you a report card every year and sat down to discuss your C- in initiating affection"
The entire bit was golden - you can coax it to be funnier by asking for 10 variations on the joke or "keep going on the part about xxx" and asking it to make even more absurd scenarios or include several layers of play on words. It is really at it's best when being guided.
An example in the above "Come up with 5 premises for amusing subjects in which a husband would receive poor grades in the relationship report card".
Then ask it to go long form on the funniest line.
Some examples of the above:
* You are on a trip with your partner, you accidentally forget to pack their toothbrush and toothpaste. Your partner is annoyed and frustrated, and you receive an F in attention to detail.
* You are at a restaurant with your partner and you order what appears to be an enjoyable meal, but end up with a dish you don't like. Your partner is sympathetic and tries to help you, but you are disappointed and unhappy. You receive a D in culinary adventure.
* You are at a party with your partner and their friends, and you accidentally spill a drink on their boss. Your partner is embarrassed and upset, and you receive an D- in social etiquette.
* You are on a romantic date with your partner, and you accidentally trip and fall into a fountain in an embarrassing manner. Your partner is amused and tries to help you out but you are wet and fall again when exiting the fountain, further embarrassing yourself. You receive an F in grace and poise.
The situation's are not overly amusing but the idea of having "grace and poise" and "culinary adventure" as a relationship subject really caught me off guard as funny.
I'll leave you with one of my favorites:
>What's an absurd situation that might lead to you getting an F- in communication?
You are at a dinner party with your partner and their friends, and everyone is having a great time. Suddenly, a bird flies into the house and starts making a lot of noise. Your partner's friends are all amused and start laughing and talking about the bird, but you don't say anything. Your partner looks at you and asks, "What do you think about the bird?" But instead of answering, you take out your phone and start playing the "Hotline Bling" ringtone on loop. Your partner looks at you with confusion and annoyance, and asks if you are okay. You continue to play the ringtone and do not respond to their question.
edit: noting that chatGPT tries very hard to be gender neutral and stereotype-averse, and I can't imagine that isn't hampering it's inappropriate humour potential...
