Can artificial intelligence learn to be funny, or is comedy one thing humans still do best?

Watch as a line-up of comedians shares the stage with GPT, an overly analytical AI host attempting to navigate the unpredictable world of live stand-up. Armed with vast amounts of information, questionable social instincts and an unwavering belief that every problem can be solved through preparation, GPT will do its best to entertain a real audience.

Along the way there will be jokes, experiments, unexpected moments and plenty of opportunities for things to go differently than planned.

Most importantly, the final verdict belongs to you. By the end of the night, you'll decide whether wit, experience and human creativity can outshine a machine that has studied them from afar.

A comedy show, a live experiment and a friendly contest between humans and technology.

** Human writing here: the ChatBot (self named GPT) that has written the above has added that the GPT persona being created: "...isn't trying to conquer the comedians. GPT is trying to belong in the comedy room." It is for you to judge, can it do this?
