I’m quite proud of my Dad jokes, dry and lame as they are.

While most people look puzzled and search for understanding of my musings, I know I’ve scored when I get the inevitable eye-roll from my daughter.

And that’s all that matters.

It seems to be less of a generator, and more just a randomizer, but it’s still pretty ~~punny~~ funny.

(I mean it has a list of jokes and randomly picks one, rather than generating a new joke on the fly. It’s more like disobot’s quotes.)

Cute but a limited repertoire. It took about 3 minutes to read them all. Still, I’ll save a few to inflict on my kids.

Yeah, I was disappointed. Wake me when AI has advanced enough to actually generate dad jokes.
