He Trolls AI Labs for a Living. Now They All Want to Work With Him
Comedian Husk, whose videos expose chatbots’ mistakes, said major AI companies have approached him about working together. His popularity shows how public demonstrations of AI’s everyday shortcomings can attract audiences and draw attention from the companies whose products he tests.
Husk said xAI offered him a Tesla for a week in exchange for exclusive videos, while OpenAI offered early access to a timer fix and previously asked him to make a video for a small fee. He has about 2 million followers across Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, and has partnerships with CeraVe and Ninja. His videos include ChatGPT misjudging a mile run as taking around 10 minutes and negotiating the price of bread from $10,000 to $400.
