Yes, it takes effort to do something clever with an LLM because LLMs can do only one type of "humor". And it's precisely the kind of humor I see everywhere on this website. Tell me that you sincerely laughed at this:
> “I bought a house through an app called Open-something and now I don't know if I own a home or a model checkpoint.”
I don't even know what this means. No human has read this and thought to themselves "this is a funny joke, let's keep it". Or how about this:
> “I tried to make a restaurant reservation and accidentally fine-tuned a language model. OpenFatigue finally made me feel seen.”
...or this:
> “My open-source project got forked into a closed product called OpenMyProject. Now I just lie on the floor.”
This is another example of "Claude make me a joke website for HN points", with zero effort behind it. There's so much real, human work in the /new queue, and we upvote this...
