Recently, a user shared a screenshot of his conversation with the chatbot on X, where he asked the AI tool to write the word ‘approved’ in Shashi Tharoor’s style.

“Sir, even ChatGPT recognizes your unique style. It was a fun experiment which I used to draft an approval to be given in an official email,” wrote X user Devesh while sharing a screenshot of the result generated by the chatbot. He also tagged Shashi Tharoor in his post.

The image he shared shows ‘approved’ written in ‘typical’ Shashi Tharoor style.

“In due deference on the matter at hand, it is my esteemed privilege to affirm that the proposition in question has garnered the imprimatur of the relevant authorities, thereby conferring upon it the immeasurable distinction of having been formally endorsed and sanctioned,” reads the result generated by ChatGPT.

The Congress MP retweeted the tweet and wrote, “Awful. Ask any bureaucrat who has sent me a file. I write ‘approved’!” Tharoor’s reply soon gained traction on X, garnering over two lakh views, and the numbers are still increasing.

Many even took to the post’s comments section to share their thoughts.

“Haha, but it is funny nevertheless,” posted an individual. Another added, “Shocking if true.” “Even a large language model like ChatGPT will start sweating trying to copy Tharoorian style,” expressed a third.

A fourth commented, “Awful. I expected you to point out a grammatical mistake in what ChatGPT wrote.” “I used it in your style to send to a friend he could not understand,” shared a fifth.
