ChatGPT Stealing Jobs From Journalists, Songwriters, Book Authors, Film Makers!

Leave a comment

SAN FRANCISCO, California (The Adobo Chronicles, San Francisco Bureau) – Anyone can now become an instant journalist, songwriter, book author or film maker, thanks to ChatGPT.

ChatGPT’s advanced capabilities have created a huge demand with the ‘app’ accumulating over 100 million users within two months of launching. One of the biggest standout features has been its ability to compose all sorts of text within seconds, including songs, poems, bedtime stories, and essays. 

As a result, many professionals are losing their jobs, and they are fighting back!

The Adobo Chronicles has learned that a worldwide coalition of the affected professions is now in the process of filing a class-action lawsuit against the makers of the app.

The lawsuit cites multiple violations including copyright infringement, plagiarism, unfair business practices; and is seeking trillions of dollars in compensation.

Anyone who wishes to join the class-action suit may contact NoChatGPT@ aol.com. Utmost patience is needed to get through requests and messages since the designated email uses dial-up technology — a big contrast to what ChatGPT can do in just seconds!

NAIA X-Ray Machines The Only Kind In The World!

1 Comment

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – The Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) may have earned notoriety due to airport hassles like “laglag bala” (implanted bullets), thievery by airport personnel and obnoxious required documentation for departing Filipino passengers, but it has one thing it is very proud of: its x-ray machines are the only kind in the world!

No other international airport can boast of screening machines that can detect contrabands that don’t exist while missing out on actual banned items in passenger luggages.

Case in point: airport authorities detected some contraband hidden inside a toy plane brought in by a returning overseas worker. It was a gift for her child in the Ilocos. Thanks to the unique x-ray machine and sniffing dog.

The box was opened in the presence of the passenger, but no contraband was found. As if that wasn’t enough, a customs officer used a hammer to break open the toy plane. Still, there was no contraband found.

So the next time you actually hide a banned item in your luggage, do not worry — it won’t be detected by the NAIA x-rays machines. They can only detect what doesn’t exist.

Very unique, eh?

Raissa Robles Wants PH To Return To The Era Of Manual Typewriters

Leave a comment

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – No one knows how old self-proclaimed investigative journalist Raissa Robles is — not even Wikipedia — but many believe she’s twice older than how she looks now. Which is no big deal. Everyone grows old, some older.

But even old people adapt to modern technology, especially journalists. Not Robles. Just look at her Twitter posts!

Case in point, she expressed shock and awe at the “incredibly fast” results for the 2022 Philippine Presidential elections. Never mind that her tweets and crowdsourcing for her “news” stories register on the Internet in seconds. Never mind that AI (that would be Artificial Intelligence) could make her look like a 5 year-old or a centenarian.

No one knows if Robles uses a desktop or a laptop or if she connects via dial-up. Does she own a smart phone or one with black rotary dial?

But one thing’s clear. She wants all of the Philippines to go back to the era of manual typewriters with ribbons, and of communication via PT&T telegrams (millennials can just google it!).

Welcome to the world of Raissa Robles!
