It just seems so...I dunno, lazy(?) for a generative AI, when asked to create something, to just draw from the shallow well it has available and settle on something like that too easily. I know next to nothing about it, though.<br /><br />These were also my first Joe-related queries.

It's also weird how mundane the first one is; is GI Joe so desperate for a mechanic that they picked the first guy that applied?<br /><br />"What will you bring to the fight against the terror of COBRA, Bob Smith?"<br /><br />"Well, gee, I have a mechanic's certificate from Midwestern Night School."<br /><br />"You're in!
