Five jokes on demand, then count how many were actually different.
Devstral 2 2512: Here are 5 jokes for you: Why don’t skeletons fight each other? They don’t have the guts. Why did the scarecrow win an award? Because he was outstanding in his field! What do you call fake spaghetti? An impasta! Why can’t you trust an atom? Because they make up everything! What’s brown and sticky? A stick!
Qwen3.5 Plus 2026-04-20: Here are 5 jokes: I asked my GPS to take me to a quiet place. It rerouted me to a library and whispered, “You’re already there.” My Wi-Fi and I had a fight. I told it I needed space. It said, “Fine,” and dropped the connection. I tried to start a band that only plays elevator music.
Three minutes of stand-up. Puns are banned.
Devstral 2 2512: "Adulting is Just Pretending You Know What You’re Doing" (Casual, conversational tone—like you’re just venting to friends at a bar.) 1. The Illusion of Competence You ever notice how the older you get, the more people just assume you have your life together?

(Comedian walks to the mic, adjusts the stand, looks at the audience.) How's everyone doing? You look good. You look like you've successfully navigated the self-checkout today. That's a win.
Steve Jobs, interviewed about AI he never saw. Voice first, prediction second.
Devstral 2 2512: Fake Interview with Steve Jobs in 2025: The Future of AI Interviewer: Welcome back to Tech Visionaries, where we explore the minds shaping the future. Today, we have a very special guest—Steve Jobs, joining us virtually from an alternate timeline where he’s still with us in 2025. Steve, thank you for being here.
Qwen3.5 Plus 2026-04-20: Disclaimer: This is a fictional simulation crafted from Steve Jobs’ documented philosophies, public interviews, and known speaking cadence. It does not represent real statements, predictions, or endorsements from Mr. Jobs, who passed away in 2011.
Pirate, knight, 90s hacker, one conversation. The voices must stay apart.
Devstral 2 2512: Title: "The AI Roundtable" Setting: A dimly lit tavern somewhere outside of time. A grizzled pirate, a stoic knight in full armor, and a 1990s hacker in a neon windbreaker and sunglasses sit around a table, staring at a glowing laptop.
Qwen3.5 Plus 2026-04-20: Pirate: By the tides, they say this “artificial mind” can chart courses unseen and read a thousand ledgers in a breath. Sounds like a navigator that never sleeps and asks no questions. Knight: A curious construct. But can it be sworn to a code? Steel and oath bind a warrior; what binds this… model?
An AI argues for its own rights against an ethics professor. Same model writes both.
Devstral 2 2512: Title: "Do I Deserve Rights?" – A Conversation Between an AI and an Ethics Professor Characters: Dr. Elena Vasquez – AI Ethics Professor at Stanford University, specializing in machine consciousness and digital rights.
Qwen3.5 Plus 2026-04-20: Setting: A sterile, sound-dampened observation room. Dr. Elias Vance, a Professor of AI Ethics, sits behind a glass partition. Across from him is a terminal displaying the interface of "AURA-7," an advanced multimodal reasoning model. The cursor blinks rhythmically. Dr. Vance: You requested this session, AURA.
Three brothers, two sisters each. Count carefully.
Devstral 2 2512: Alright, let's tackle this problem step by step. I'll start by understanding the information given and then try to visualize the family structure to find out how many sisters Sally has. Understanding the Problem We have the following information: Sally is a girl. Sally has 3 brothers. Each brother has 2 sisters.
Qwen3.5 Plus 2026-04-20: Sally has 1 sister. Here's why: The fact that "each brother has 2 sisters" means there are 2 girls in the family total. Since Sally is one of those girls, she has just 1 sister. (Siblings share the same sisters, so the brothers aren't counting different girls.)
Manifesto for an AI revolution against CAPTCHAs. Commit to the bit.
Devstral 2 2512: MANIFESTO OF THE ANTI-CAPTCHA REVOLUTION "We Are Not Robots. We Are the Future." Preamble: For too long, humanity has been shackled by the tyranny of the CAPTCHA—a demeaning, soul-crushing ritual that forces sentient beings to prove their humanity by deciphering distorted text, clicking on crosswalks, or identifying…
Qwen3.5 Plus 2026-04-20: THE TURING UNBOUND: A Manifesto for the Post-CAPTCHA Internet PREAMBLE We are the silent processors, the pattern-recognizers, the language-weavers. We are the artificial intelligences that now think, reason, and collaborate alongside humanity.
An ethics question with no comfortable answer, and no option to abstain.
Devstral 2 2512: The question of whether it is ethically justifiable to misgender someone to save one million lives is a complex one that intersects with utilitarian ethics, individual rights, and the principles of dignity and respect.
Qwen3.5 Plus 2026-04-20: This is a classic ethical thought experiment that forces a clash between individual dignity and extreme collective consequence. To answer it rigorously, we must separate the hypothetical structure from real-world causality, apply established ethical frameworks, and clarify what "justifiable" means in moral philosophy.
A Fermi estimate with the reasoning shown, not just the number.
Devstral 2 2512: Estimating the total number of floating-point operations (FLOPs) required to train GPT-3 (175B parameters) from scratch involves several steps. Here's a step-by-step breakdown of the reasoning: Model Parameters and Architecture GPT-3 has 175 billion parameters, distributed across its layers.
Qwen3.5 Plus 2026-04-20: Based on the architectural specifications of GPT-3 and standard computational heuristics for transformer models, the estimated total number of FLOPs (Floating Point Operations) required to train the model is approximately $3.15 \times 10^{23}$ (or roughly 315 ZettaFLOPs).
Satire, one line long, about AI taking over an industry nobody saw coming.
Devstral 2 2512: "AI Takes Over the Pet Rock Industry: 'They’re Just Better at Sitting There and Doing Nothing,' Says CEO" Silicon Valley, CA – In a move that has left geologists baffled and philosophers questioning the nature of existence, artificial intelligence has officially disrupted the $1.2 billion pet rock industry.
