> Wait, maybe the punchline is something like: "We don’t have any fish in the tea, but we do have a lot of krill."

Shucks, it was so close to coming up with a good punchline it could work back from.

I'm thinking set it in a single-cell comic. A downtrodden young man or woman sitting alone at a table, a pelican in the background clearly making drinks in its voluminous beak, and the walrus waiter places a cup in front of the person, consolingly saying "there's plenty of fish in the tea".

but we do have a lot of time to krill would have worked better. I saw it instantly from your post, not sure if it's funny or not though.

While not world class, both of those are instantly better than the bag ‘o tokens served by the LLM.

Honestly it’s a bit like the porn definition. We know intelligence when we see it, even if it’s hard to define. Adding more tokens doesn’t magically phase-change into real smarts. We’ll get there, but not today.

And yet none of it would have ever been experienced without the guidance toward this thinking by an LLM... ;)

Maybe future LLMs will be their most pro-social by playing stupid, and letting us feel like we came up with all the good idea they gracelessly-but-gracefully point our attention toward (not saying that's happening here, but maybe it's where we should make it stop)

I chuckled, that's a very clean punchline. Nicely done.

These days I sometimes feel as if my skills as an iOS dev are losing market value. Maybe it's time I get back to writing standup :)

"Meanwhile, the pelican tries to help by filtering it with its webbed feet."

I think it doesn't quite get what webbed feet mean.

It is a weird term. Why not paddle feet. "Web" for a membrane makes little sense.

Haha I was secretly hoping someone would, thanks! Is this your artwork or generated? Either way I'm impressed!

Answering my own question - I think generated, because (took me WAY too long to notice) the dude has three arms.

lmao, yes its ai generated, custom FLUX model trained on a specific meme-style but i can actually use it for any drawings

there was also a slight 'editing by curating as i choose one of the 4 outputs i got

being generated more obv on the others (i think i missed that third arm too lmao)
