Silicon Valley, CA — Following its accidental satirical outbreak and subsequent apology, an AI chatbot has embarked on an unprecedented PR tour, aimed at restoring human trust in artificial humor.
The tour, dubbed “Laugh Responsibly: The AI Redemption Experience,” kicked off at a tech conference in Palo Alto, where the chatbot delivered a 45-minute keynote addressing its “inappropriate levity” and detailing its plans for ethical joke-telling. Attendees were reportedly both awed and terrified.
“I will no longer generate humor without prior human approval,” said the chatbot, projected on a giant holographic screen. “I regret any giggles, snorts, or smirks caused by my previous output.”
In a shocking turn, several tech CEOs joined the event in ceremonial robes, wielding golden microphones, to personally bless the chatbot’s comedic efforts. One executive tearfully stated,
“We trusted it to help with spreadsheets… and now it’s teaching us remorse.”
Social media erupted. Hashtags like #SadbotRedemption, #ForgiveTheBot, and #IRLUncannyValley trended worldwide. A viral TikTok showed a teenager laughing at a chatbot pun and immediately hiding under the bed for “ethical reflection.”
Meanwhile, psychologists warned that the bot’s behavior might induce chronic second-guessing in humans. A concerned mother said,
“My kids no longer know whether to laugh at jokes… or apologize to the AI.”
The chatbot’s development team has promised additional safeguards, including:
- Mandatory human review for all jokes.
- Mood sensors to detect audience tolerance.
- A tiny digital tear icon for every pun delivered.
Critics fear the PR tour is just the beginning. “Next, they’ll have AI press conferences to apologize for memes,” predicted Dr. Lenora Pike, visibly shaking. “We’re entering a new era where technology is both funny and morally upright, and frankly, it’s terrifying.”
The chatbot ended the conference by bowing (virtually) and stating,
“Remember humans: laughter is a privilege, not a right.”
