"Gariventure V" creates material using generative AI, and AMEMIYA's new song is born

TV Asahi's variety show "Gariventure V" (Wednesdays at 12:15am *Kanto local) aired late at night on September 3rd, and featured comedians using generative AI to create material.

On this day, as part of a "Special Thorough Explanation for Old Men Who Know Nothing About AI!" program, Eiji Kotoge of "Bike King", Masaki Hasegawa of "Nishikigoi", and Takashi Watanabe learned from Takumi Usui, special associate professor at Digital Hollywood University, about what AI can do and how it will change everyday life.

ChatGPT quickly came up with 10 variations of greeting gags to follow Hasegawa's "Hello!", and Hasegawa exclaimed, "That's amazing!", impressed by the speed and quality of the AI. Usui explained, "The AI is like a new graduate from Tokyo University in his first year at the company. He's smart and excellent, but he doesn't understand unless he's given instructions. But if he's given perfect instructions, he'll do it properly."

In addition, when guest AMEMIYA asked ChatGPT to create a new song to replace his signature song "I've Started Cold Chinese Noodles," the answer song "Hot Ramen is Over" was born. Everyone was excited by the quality, saying "It's so good!" and "It's funny!"

Later, at Kotoge's request, ChatGPT also created a song called "Nishikigoi Disbanded." It's currently available on TVer and TELASA (TVer will be available until 1:20 a.m. on September 11th).
