Viral 'ChatTJB' Mocks AI Hype: Powered Entirely by One Sleep-Deprived Guy
dunkhippo33 · x · 2026-08-14
The viral AI chatbot ChatTJB has no underlying LLM. Every single response is manually typed by its creator, Tucker Bryant.
Built to poke fun at the AI hype cycle, the project blew up massively. Bryant was nearly worked into the ground as he refused to sleep to answer the relentless flood of user questions around the clock. Safely say, this purely human-powered "bot" will never flunk a Turing test.
