AI Weirdness

AI improves your Halloween costumes!

Gave GPT-3 a few examples of how to change one style of text into another and now it can do this:

Input:
I’m dressing as a pumpkin for Halloween!
Scarier:
I am the Pumpkin King, the owl ruler of all beasts, the bringer of eternal darkness, the Master of 1000 Corpses.

Input:
I’m dressing as a cat for Halloween!
Scarier:
“I will spend this Hallow’s Eve as a harmless house cat.

Input:
I’m dressing as a vampire for Halloween!
More impressive:
I shall be displaying my vampiric prowesses at a Halloween carnaval gala on a black a moonless night caparisoned capriciously in a cape, a cowl, a cape accentuated with a collar and a collar that is black, a tailcoat, a batwinged bat-sleeve bat-wing bat-collared batwing batwing batwing batwing batwing

Input:

More interesting:
You are preparing to confront the powerful Uber Faerie, one of the rulers of the week, he who commands the forces of week, including faeries, goblins, toadstools, lampposts, and fleas. It is to be your first confrontation with him, and you are secretly afraid.

Input:
I’m dressing as a witch for Halloween!
More unusual:
I’m dressing as a wicked witch, but no costume is complete without lots of sexy accessories, including a flying broom, a poison apple, and a talking hand-puppet duck.

Input:
I’m dressing as a robot for Halloween!
More impressive:
I am constructing an exocortex. Expect me to appear at your door any hour of the night, your blood frozen in your veins, offering you swarms of nanobots to gird your skills, terabytes of thought fermenting in your hippocampus, seeking out your fears and smashing them, your shadow a shadow no more.

I also tried this experiment with the smallest GPT-3 model, Ada, but it wasn’t quite as good at it.
