While all dads think they have the best jokes, we turned to the AI chatbot ChatGPT to create a list of ultimate jokes
To celebrate Father’s Day, we asked ChatGPT: ‘What are the ultimate dad jokes?’
Within seconds, the AI bot came up with a list of 20 jokes and wrote, “Here are some of the best dad jokes that are sure to get a laugh (or a groan).”
At the top of the list is: ‘Why don’t skeletons fight each other? They don’t have the courage.’
Then follows the classic ‘What do you call cheese that isn’t yours? Nacho cheese.”
In fact, food-based jokes seem to be a common thread for ChatGPT.
Other options include ‘What do you call fake spaghetti? An impasta’ and ‘What did the grape do when it was stepped on? There was nothing to do but pour out a little wine.’

In addition to food-based jokes, several of ChatGPT’s jokes are aimed at animals.
‘How does a penguin build its house? Igloos it together,” reads one of the jokes, while another asks, “What do you call a fish with a crown? A kingfish.’
Meanwhile, one of the jokes asks, “What do you call a dog that does magic?” A labrador brador?’
It can be hard not to roll your eyes when your dad makes jokes, but try not to. Research shows that these jokes can be an example of good parenting.
Dad jokes are important for teaching children to avoid being embarrassed in front of their parents, argues an expert researcher.

Marc Hye-Knudsen, humor researcher and laboratory manager at Aarhus University’s Cognition and Behavior Laboratory, writes for the British Psychological Association‘By teasingly attacking their children’s egos and emotions without resorting to bullying, fathers build their children’s resilience and train them to withstand small attacks and bouts of negative emotions without getting worked up or upset. acting, which helps them learn impulse control and emotional regulation.
‘In light of this, it is worth considering dad jokes as a pedagogical tool that can serve a useful function for the very children who roll their eyes at them.
‘By constantly telling their children jokes that are so bad that they embarrass them, fathers can push their children’s limits in terms of the amount of embarrassment they can handle.
“They show their children that shame doesn’t kill.”
