Have you used ChatGPT yet? It is an AI powered chatbot that has gone viral among people. Also, many have taken to social media to share screenshots of their conversations with the bot. Just like this Twitter user did. He asked the platform to write him a leave of absence but in the style of Shashi Tharoor. The bot delivered and how!
Twitter user Nishanth Vijayan shared a descriptive caption about his little experiment along with a screenshot. “I know everyone's tired of ChatGPT screenshots, but this is legit GOLD. Prompt: ‘Write a paragraph explaining my leave of absence tomorrow at work, due to 'not feeling the vibes', in the style of Shashi Tharoor’,” he wrote.
The image he shared shows the leave of absence written in an elaborate and flowery language. “As I sit here, staring at the clock ticking away in an obdurate manner, I am filled with a sense of trepidation. The vibes, dear colleagues, are not quite right today. The air is thick with an intangible malaise, a feeling of disquiet that permeates my very being. I fear that if I were to step into the office tomorrow, I would be like a fish out of water, floundering in a sea of ennui. And so, it is with a heavy heart that I must inform you all that I shall be taking a leave of absence tomorrow. I implore you to understand my predicament, for the vibes are a fickle mistress and one never knows when they may take a turn for the worse. Farewell, my friends, and do take care,” reads the result created by the chatbot.
