For this weird Grammarly AI Commercial, the Jokes Write Themselves....

 


It's like a buffet of punchlines that leaves you standing there paralyzed with indecision, with no idea how to start.  

"I'm a Art History Major, and this essay is due on Friday...."

Girl, your "professor" doesn't care about the essay.  She knows you're just going to punt it over to ChatGBT.  After all, if you were serious about creating something of value- or even surviving financially in the America of the 21st century- you wouldn't be the Very Last Person on the Planet on an academic path to earn a degree in Art History.  Seriously, I didn't even know that was a thing anymore.  IS it still a thing?  Or is it just the most face-palm subject the writers of this commercial could think of to assign this doofus stereotype of a college student.

So anyway, the Ridiculously Out of Touch Star of our Commercial can't string three coherent sentences together and punts the job over to Grammarly AI, figuring that its a new system and maybe if her teacher is over thirty she probably doesn't know about it yet but is regrettably aware of ChatGBT.  Maybe she figures that for at least a semester or so said teacher will remain unaware of the program that will allow her to run this plagiarized essay that no one wants to write or read and will never provide any actual value to anyone pass muster with the school and she'll get that passing grade that will allow her to continue her pointless path to a worthless degree.

(Yes, I'm aware that was a run-on sentence.  I'm not running it through an AI filter to "clean it up" though because I'm not a base, lazy hypocrite.)

I'll wrap this up by shaking my head at our "student" here, going tens of thousands of dollars into debt to take classes that will lead her nowhere and using AI to do her homework in the process.  Maybe she's got the money to waste, but what about the time?  She's never getting that back.  Maybe she's a trust fund baby who likes Art History and will be driving back home for the holidays in the Lexus Mommy and Daddy got her to make Christmas 2023 a December to Remember?  There's got to be a good back story like that here, or the epilogue is going to be really, really sad.  

"Art History Major." SMH, as the cool kids text.
