But the AI wrote the joke, too. OP(or rather OOP) didn't contribute anything more than typing "make me a comic about science", clicking generate, and then uploading. And the entire process used a shit ton of extra power to generate the image compared to conventionally doing the art.

I use AI. I'm not better than anyone, I'm just not going to pretend there isn't a lot wrong with the whole situation.

The joke is pretty old though.

That's why the so-called "AI" was able to "come up" with it.

It lacks context to create anything new.
