Recently, the TikToker @sillyyerba has gone viral for sharing the funny email crafted by artificial intelligence chatbot ChatGPT in response to her request for help. She asked for help in creating a professional letter to her boss about quitting her job, and ChatGPT generated a unique response which included the candid statement: “I cannot be sad and poor for another month”.
Mari, who goes by @sillyyerba on TikTok, had informed her boss of her plans to quit the job and upon being requested to stay on till 8th June, the TikToker decided to ask the AI ChatGPT to craft a professional response saying that she couldn’t be “sad and poor” for another month.
The AI-generated reply started by expressing appreciation for the opportunity granted and regretfully informing that the time of leaving cannot be extended beyond 6 May. Understandably, the email made reference to individual circumstances which prevent being financially challenged any further. The line that caused hilarity among viewers “As much as I value my time here, I cannot be sad and poor for another month.” was followed by explanation of the need for a smooth transition at the company and a request for any help in that regard.
Viewers had plenty of fun with Mari’s amusing post, with most appreciating the ChatGPT’s direct approach in tackling the topic. Some were even encouraging her to send the message as it was and take the plunge. Ultimately, Mari edited the emailed to make it more humanly crafted and considerate, however that did not take away from the success of the viral post.
ChatGPT is a company providing a platform for a chatbot offering customers with prompt and accurate responses. Although the AI-generated content does sometimes contain intriguing messages such as “I cannot be sad and poor for another month.”, the company is reputable for its services and Mari’s experience is seen to be no exception. The platform is designed to help people craft professional messages with ease and provide the customers with individualized resources they need.
Mari’s ability to make humorous posts with potential of going round and leaving people amused is highly commendable. The charm of her footage can be seen by her 8 million views, which is a testament to her talent and flair. Her candidness is appreciated and so is her wish to be professional with emails. With this video, Mari has reminded us of the funny and unsuitable responses AI can give sometimes but also that it can help us out nonetheless.
