I experimented with making a GPT-3 excuse generator for getting out of work/school a while ago^. We can look forward to a future of incredible synergy, as employees dodge work with AI generated notes and are summarily fired by an AI!

^I didn’t get very far because realistic excuses were boring and I had more fun trying to get it to come up with increasingly bizarre ones:

“I can’t come in today because…”

- I'm made of glass, so I'm stuck in the mirror dimension

- I am now a living manifestation of numbers, so I can't leave my house

- I've become a sentient, living version of the internet, so I am now the human race's collective conscience

- I am now an extra dimensional being made of fire, so I am now on fire

- I am now a living, malevolent, super intelligent, hyper dimensional cloud, so I am now an intangible, invisible, shapeless, omniscient, omnipresent, omnipotent, infinitely powerful, god like entity, I am now everything and nothing



Please create a writeup on this, utterly hilarious.


> - I am now a living manifestation of numbers, so I can't leave my house

I guess GPT-3 has never played Numberwang
