This paper presents a novel dataset for creative tasks, consisting of over 250 million human ratings on more than 2.2 million captions, collected through crowdsourcing rating data for The New Yorker’s weekly cartoon caption contest. This unique dataset supports the development and evaluation of multimodal large language models and preference-based fine-tuning algorithms for humorous caption generation. Novel benchmarks are proposed to judge the quality of model-generated captions, utilizing both GPT4 and human judgments to establish ranking-based evaluation strategies. Experimental results highlight the limitations of current fine-tuning methods when applied to creative tasks. Furthermore, even state-of-the-art models like GPT4 and Claude currently underperform top human contestants in generating humorous captions.

This paper creates a big dataset with lots of ratings on funny caption ideas. People have been voting on these captions for eight years! The data can help make better artificial intelligence (AI) that can come up with good jokes. The researchers also made new ways to test how well AI does at making people laugh. They found that even the best AI models are not as good as humans at coming up with funny captions.
