“Sir, even ChatGPT recognizes your unique style. It was a fun experiment which I used to draft an approval to be given in an official email,” wrote X user Devesh while sharing a screenshot of the result generated by the chatbot. He also tagged Shashi Tharoor in his post.

The image he shared shows ‘approved’ written in ‘typical’ Shashi Tharoor style. “In due deference on the matter at hand, it is my esteemed privilege to affirm that the proposition in question has garnered the imprimatur of the relevant authorities, thereby conferring upon it the immeasurable distinction of having been formally endorsed and sanctioned,” reads the result generated by ChatGPT.
