Let me know when they invent one of those, because they sure as fuck haven't done it yet.

This was literally part of the 2022 PaLM paper and allegedly the thing that had Hinton quit to go ringing alarm bells and by this year we now have multimodal GPT-4 writing out explanations for visual jokes.

Just because an ostrich sticks its head in the sand doesn't mean the world outside the hole doesn't exist.

And in case you don't know what I mean by that, here's GPT-4 via Bing's explanation for the phrase immediately above:

This statement is a metaphor that means ignoring a problem or a reality does not make it go away. It is based on the common myth that ostriches bury their heads in the sand when they are scared or threatened, as if they can’t see the danger. However, this is not true. Ostriches only stick their heads in the ground to dig holes for their nests or to check on their eggs. They can also run very fast or kick hard to defend themselves from predators. Therefore, the statement implies that one should face the challenges or difficulties in life, rather than avoiding them or pretending they don’t exist.

Go ahead and ask Eliza what the sentence means and compare.

I'm sure this paper is very funny, but I don't believe for a second that it successfully explains jokes.

lol, is that what you think jokes are?

it's explaining an idiom. that's all.

we could do that way before AIM chatbots

Tell you what. Come up with a unique joke that isn't on Google, and let's see what GPT-4 says as to why it might be funny.

You seem not to really grok the whole "just because I haven't seen it it must not exist" thing, and I suppose the easiest way to address it is to just put you directly in front of it in action.

Why would I bother? Why would I want GPT-4 to attempt to explain a joke to me? I'm an adult.

If you care, if you think that's a feature, you can go ahead and ask it to try to explain this, it's a very simple joke, it wouldn't be hard for a human without a sense of humor to explain, so certainly a half-cocked algorithm should be able to manage. But don't bother telling me what happens, I couldn't care less.
