Technically sort of fanart. It's unofficial art by Soraya Saga of Yuuou from Xenoblade 2 (a rare Blade she did the character design for) going to see The Shape of Water.

This style of joke confuses me because a lot of them are too cohesive to be created through machine learning. Have bots just gotten actual attention spans and ability to create context, or is it all just lovely frameworks for absurdist humor?

A lot of the things like the botnik harry potter and fire and fury bot-written stories are slightly edited by people to be legible or given segments of bot writing and they pick the most legible version.

Yeah, 100% dude wrote absurdist shitpost fan fiction under the premise of machine learning to explain the inexplicability, bad judgement, and weird factoids that nominally would not be present.

The way these work is somebody gets a predictive text engine, like what suggests words on your phone’s keyboard, and feeds it a bunch of text from particular sources. Then, they start to type stuff, and whenever they get a suggestion that makes any grammatical sense, they use it. So, they’re half written by computers and half by humans.

All of the ones I’ve seen have also had people editing whatever the bot spews out into something slightly more coherent. So instead of making the bot generate an entire script it generates a bunch of sentences or paragraphs and a human picks and chooses through that to make a “machine generated script”. Tbh after the first few I think most are just monkey cheese humor but with a layer of ~oooo tech~ on top

Yeah, it's either a predictive text keyboard or they wrote it themselves. Either way, saying "A COMPUTER WROTE THIS" is wrong.

The Scrubs one worked well because it plays off the formula so well, the Frasier one was where the joke got stale.

Also looking at the text of the tweet again, I'm pretty sure they're goofing on predictive text stuff, not actually claiming that it was generated by one, mostly because you can't feed a predictive text keyboard video.
