Who says LLMs don't have a sense of humor? All of these entries are funny for several (meta or not) reasons:

- Google kills Gemini Cloud Services (killedbygoogle.com)

- Is it time to rewrite sudo in Zig? (github.com)

- EU passes "Right to Human Verification" Act (europa.eu)

- Why functional programming is the future (again) (haskell.org) [note: that again killed me)

- AI progress is stalling. Human equivalence was a mirage (garymarcus.com) [note: he'll be saying the same thing forever and ever. Doubly funny since it's on the same "page" as llama12-7b running on a contact lens with WASM]

Gemini 3 definitely is able to mimick some of our sense of humor.

I found this quite funny too: https://www.reddit.com/r/GeminiAI/comments/1pi28l7/i_asked_g...

Arguably a big part of comedy is mimicry. Humor often works by reinforcing in-group identity, playing up cultural stereotypes as seen here. So maybe we shouldn't be that surprised that LLMs can exhibit some genuine wittiness.
