Maybe the one bright spot at the moment is that it was my prompt that provided the humorous scenario. When I asked the machine to come up with its own topic, it wasn’t as successful.
The frightening thing is that these variations would all probably earn an A for any high school English student. There was an article online today about Gen Z not reading to their young children because it's "boring." I worry that a decline in literary interest and the ease of faking it will have real consequences for younger generations. Though I'd probably give an A to some kid who wrote, “Frog stuff happens near water,” the frog’s “moist dialect,” and "Splash if you feel like it," just because it made me laugh. Maybe I'm part of the problem after all.
