ChatGPT memes emerged alongside the explosive growth of OpenAI's language model in late 2022. They typically highlight the contrast between the AI's authoritative tone and its occasional tendency to 'hallucinate' facts or generate bizarrely specific responses. Common formats involve screenshots of actual conversations where the AI gives an unexpected answer, or satirical templates showing the bot taking over jobs or confidently failing at basic math. This meme category resonates with users who experience the blend of awe and frustration that comes with using cutting-edge artificial intelligence in daily life.
