LMMs fail to get the punchline of dinosaur extinction meme
NoYouDidLaugh · reddit · 2026-08-29
The author tested several LLMs (Claude, Grok, Kimi, Gemini, GLM) on a meme showing two dinosaurs making a wish on the Chicxulub asteroid. While all models correctly identified the dramatic irony of impending doom, they all missed the 'obvious' specific visual punchline intended by the creator, highlighting a persistent blind spot in AI's ability to grasp nuanced human humor.
