Can’t afford a proper Comedy Central roast? Have ChatGPT roast your Instagram feed instead.
Justin Bieber. Tom Brady. The Jonas Brothers. What do all of these celebrities have in common? They’re all typical white men. But they’ve also been roasted in front of a live audience and the whole thing was filmed for everyone to watch. Roasts are nothing new. The new generation may not know who Don Rickles is but a quick search on YouTube and you’ll see clips of the legendary comedian roasting the likes of Frank Sinatra and Ronald Reagan and not stopping even in the 2010s. But this new trend takes roasts to a whole new level and a new generation. Because only a fortunate few can get the likes of Kevin Hart and Roastmaster General Jeff Ross to roast them, we will have to settle with ChatGPT making a scathingly accurate roast of our Instagram feeds.
The ChatGPT Roast of your IG feed: A step-by-step guide
AI is a useful and controversial tool, but there’s no doubt it’s now being used to its full potential with this new trend. Recently, many have been sharing on their Instagram Stories how ChatGPT has roasted their feeds. The results are hilarious and will either make you impressed with the AI’s capabilities or infuriated that a robot can pinpoint your deep seated insecurity just by glancing at your feed.
How exactly do you get ChatGPT to roast your Instagram feed? Here’s a step-by-step guide.
Download Instagram and ChatGPT. Duh.
It goes without saying but just in case it still needs to be said for some reason, you need to have ChatGPT and Instagram on your phone. You can access both on your desktop, sure, but only a maniac uses Instagram on their desktop.
Another thing that should be obvious: you should have some photos on your Instagram feed. Unless you want ChatGPT to roast the void that is your feed, which must be a representation of the void in your soul. I’m roasting you now, so you’ll be prepared for what ChatGPT is gonna say.
Screenshot your Instagram feed
Take a screenshot of your feed either right from the top where your profile picture can be seen or scroll a little bit to the bottom so only your photos can be seen. Both will work.
Upload the screenshot to ChatGPT and say “Roast my IG feed”
Find the “+” on the bottom left-hand corner of the ChatGPT app to upload your screenshot, then before sending, type “Roast my IG feed”. Now sit back and get burned.
Play around with it
The mistake some people make is that they want a simple roast from the AI, but you can get creative. I asked it to roast my feed using Shakespearian insults, and trust me, there’s no burn harsher than being called a “spongy, ill-nurtured miscreant”.
If it isn’t obvious already, ChatGPT will not hold back. I made the mistake of being snarky when the AI simply evaluated my feed after a prompt and… well, I’ll let the result speak for itself.
Watch out for the upload limit
Unless you have the Pro version of ChatGPT, you’ve only got a limited amount of MBs that you can upload each day. You can always just keep asking the AI in the same prompt to roast you differently, like how the AI roasted me here John Mulaney-style.
Have fun getting roasted, and if ever it gets a little too much, ChatGPT does remind you that, well, you asked for it—which bodes very well for our future.
