30 of the Funniest Tweets from the Week of April 15, 2024

Yet another week filled with yet another round of dizzying news. Over on Prime Video, there’s been nothing but positive reactions to its latest original series Fallout (namely: an impressive 94 percent on Rotten Tomatoes), so much so that it’s already been renewed for a second season. Quentin Tarantino, on the other hand, had a bad reaction to his own work and is going back to the drawing board for his 10th and final film after scrapping the highly anticipated but delayed The Movie Critic. And Seth MacFarlane says as long as Family Guy keeps making people happy, “there’s no good reason to stop.”

But the wildest news of the week centered around a highly questionable use of A.I. Shudder and David Dastmalchian can breathe a sigh of relief because Late Night with the Devil’s employment of generative A.I. pales in comparison to Netflix’s three-fingered handiwork. The streamer has been accused of using A.I. in its latest crime doc, What Jennifer Did, to create an image that would depict a woman accused of murder-for-hire as “bubbly, happy, confident and very genuine.” This particular use of A.I. continues to raise questions around the ethics of the technology in entertainment and beyond.

That said, there were no questions about what went down on the timeline this week — just good old fashioned humor. This week’s funniest tweets included those about a paycheck that will bring the mathematician out of anyone, the drink that pairs best with agony and the unlikely life task that will upend your entire day.
