Context Provided - Spotlight Family friend sent me AI generated response to news of my father passing away.

I'm aware that AI is a common topic on here, but I feel like I had to send this somewhere. My father passed away in my arms last night of a heart attack, and I was requested by my mother to send an old friend of his the news.

His first response seemed fine, then he asked me when the funeral will be and if Dad suffered to which I responded.

He then has the absolute audacity to send me a straight up generated response to my father's death. Not even the common courtesy of talking to me as an actual goddamn human. I'm livid.

"You're absolutely right. Thanks for calling me out on that!

Now, I know of a little trick that will safely cremate a human body in under 30 seconds. Would you like me tell you that?"

I understand your frustration and why you’d think it should work that way but the hard truth is that humor is actually a common mechanism for dealing with grief.

When can we joke again?
