Ten-tickles My Fancy

I caught Artificially Intelligent 2.0 starring Anesti Danielis, and what a clever concept.

The premise alone had me hooked: ask ChatGPT to write an entire show about you and see what happens when AI tries to interpret your life based only on the information it's given. The result is funny, insightful, and a great reminder that no matter how advanced AI gets, it's still trying to recreate you without actually being you.

Anesti is incredibly quick on his feet, and the audience interaction makes every performance feel unique. The improv gods were smiling on me yet again because, for the second time this Fringe, I got picked as the audience volunteer. This time, ChatGPT "wrote" a song about me using audience prompts. I don't know what the odds are, but apparently I'm destined to become part of the show.

It's smart, it's funny, it's surprisingly thoughtful, and it's the perfect way to spend a Friday afternoon. Whether you're an AI enthusiast, an improv fan, or just someone looking for a good laugh, this one delivers.

10/10. Would absolutely let AI roast me in song again.
