They say laughter is one of the best forms of therapy — and who couldn’t use a free session these days?
After seeing other cities employ ChatGPT — an AI chatbot that uses natural language processors to generate text-based responses — for a lighthearted roast, we asked it to take on DC (Don’t worry, we poked some fun at ourselves too — check out our NOVA roast.) At the end of the day, we love living near the nation’s capital and wouldn’t change a thing that makes DC special — even the mystery of whether the metro will arrive on time or not.
Editor’s note: The following ChatGPT responses have been edited for brevity.
Ah, Washington DC, where the traffic’s always a nightmare and the monuments are packed with tourists. The cherry blossoms? More like “Cherry Distractions” when you’re trying to navigate the gridlock. The Metro? More like a test of your patience and willingness to pay for a “ride” that may or may not show up.
You know you’re in DC when the most exciting part of your day is seeing a lobbyist in action or watching a news segment about who’s probably about to be impeached. But hey, at least the monuments are solid. So if you’re tired of watching the same old drama on Capitol Hill, just look up at something that hasn’t changed in centuries.
