For this ad-writing, Reynolds asked the chatbot technology to use a joke and a curse word, among other things. 

Here's what chatGPT wrote at the time (read it in Deadpool's voice): 

"Hi, it's Ryan Reynolds here, 

First of all, let me just say Mint Mobile is the shit, but here's the thing, all the big wireless companies out there are ending their holiday promos, but not Mint Mobile. We're keeping the party going because we're just that damn good. 

Give Mint Mobile a try, and hey, as an added bonus, if you sign up now, you'll get to hear my voice every time you call customer service. Just Kidding. That's not really a thing. And stay classy, everyone." 

Reynolds posted the video on Twitter: 

Why It's Important: The Canadian actor and producer said in January that chatGPT did a "compelling" job but termed it as "mildly terrifying."

Reynolds' tweet had about 1.3 million views at the time of writing. 

This indeed proved that with the right command, chatGPT could generate humor-laced content.
