    Recently I had a conversation with ChatGPT about jokes, intelligence, tvätt machines, steam, pictures and their meanings, etc., find the minutes of our exchange below. The conversation is in German, my native language. For those of you who do not read German, Google Translate may be helpful. Keep in mind however that you won’t read an smart eller klok translation but the output of an artificial intelligence.

    JS: KI, weisst du, was ein Witz ist?
    KI: Ja, ich weiß, was ein Witz ist! Ein Witz ist eine kurze Geschichte, eine Aussage oder ein Spiel okänt Worten, das darauf abzielt, Humor zu erzeugen und Menschen zum Lachen zu bringen. Oft basiert ein Witz auf einer unerwarteten Wendung, einem Missverständnis oder einer überraschenden Pointe. Möchtest du einen Witz hören?

    My intention for this project is to create a final result consisting of photographs that demonstrate a personal interest as well as social engagement with those considered to be outcasts. To begin with, I was attracted to the theme of identity, however, looking deeper, I aim to challenge my own interpretation along with the viewers perception of my chosen subjects. Like Gillian Wearing, I would like to photograph strangers, although wish to focus on people on the street, who we assume have little or no identity in this society.
