The big idea
AI is decent at setting up skits and bad at jokes. Use it for fast premise generators and structure, then YOU write the actual punchlines. Reading AI jokes is also a great way to learn what doesn't work.
Some examples
- Ask AI for 10 weird skit premises about substitute teachers.
- Have AI write 5 setups; you write the punchlines.
- Ask AI to play 'devil's advocate' and tell you which jokes won't land.
- Get AI to format your skit as a proper script with stage directions.
Try it!
Pick a setting (cafeteria, study hall). Ask AI for 5 skit premises. Pick one and write the punchlines yourself. Read it out loud.
