    ChatGPT Returns
    Dec 1 2025
    This week we are welcoming back ChatGPT to the show to talk about their evolution since we last spoke and how they think they can be of service in the improv world. Iain chats with the newly-upgraded AI about the growing visibility of improv, how performers are using technology as a creative tool, and what the future might look like as human improvisers and AI learn to play together. We also explore the rise of improv across the UK, the joy of pun-based games, and why British audiences seem to love awkward humour more than anyone else. It’s an unusual episode, but a fascinating conversation about creativity, connection and the ever-changing world of improv. So pour yourself a cuppa, sit back and enjoy this unconventional chat about improv, technology and everything in between.
