ChatGPT: Slightly Funny Sketch Writer

COMMENT: This will not be funny unless you are familiar with the SNL “Stefon” series of sketches with Bill Hader (see for example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEM7h3fz2RE). If you know those sketches, and read this aloud with the correct affect, it may be kinda funny. It is impressive how ChatGPT captures some structure of a Stefon sketch. ChatGPT does not come up with anything quite as great as “jacked midgets”, but I’m not sure you could say things like that now anyway unless they were in quotation marks and even then … The “it’s that thing where …” trope is absent but that might require a dialog format and I haven’t gotten ChatGPT to do that right yet.

ME: Tell me about a new club in New York in the style of Stefon from the TV show Saturday Night Live.

ChatGPT: Yes, yes, yes! New York’s hottest new club is “Disco Inferno’s Speakeasy Masquerade”!

Located in a secret basement in the heart of the city, this club has everything: burlesque dancers, live jazz music, a hidden bar with signature cocktails, and even a secret room for VIP guests. And don’t forget to dress up for the masquerade theme, because the only thing hotter than the club’s dance floor is the guests themselves.

But wait, there’s more! If you’re feeling adventurous, try your luck in the club’s secret game room, where you can test your skills in blackjack, roulette, and even a special game called “Russian Roulette Lite”. And for the ultimate adrenaline rush, check out the basement’s secret underground fight club, where you can watch amateur boxers battle it out in the ring.

So if you’re looking for a night of mystery, excitement, and danger, come on down to “Disco Inferno’s Speakeasy Masquerade”! It’s the club that never sleeps, because the guests are always up to something wild.

That’s good but make some of it a bit more edgy or surreal

Absolutely, I hear you! New York’s most twisted and surreal new club is “The Inferno’s Gateway to the Abyss”!

Located in a dimly-lit alleyway in the depths of the city, this club has everything you never knew you wanted: demonic dancers, live experimental music, a bar with signature drinks that can only be described as “sinful”, and a secret passageway that leads to an alternate dimension. And leave your inhibitions at the door, because guests are encouraged to fully immerse themselves in the dark and depraved atmosphere.

But that’s not all! If you’re feeling particularly daring, try your luck in the club’s infamous “Purgatory Room”, where you’ll be trapped in a maze of mirrors and must find your way out before the time runs out. And for the truly adventurous, there’s the “Soul Auction”, where you can bid on the souls of the damned for a chance to possess their otherworldly powers.

So if you’re looking for a night of twisted and macabre delights, come on down to “The Inferno’s Gateway to the Abyss”! It’s the club where the lines between reality and fantasy blur, and the guests are all too willing to cross them. But be warned, once you enter, you may never return to the world you once knew.
