About this paper

Kanay Gupta, David Y. Liu, Aditya Joshi

The authors test whether a prompt separating satire’s straight-faced account from its implied meaning improves model explanations of Betoota Advocate and The Onion articles. It asks models to identify a narrator trope, state the surface account, infer the author’s meaning, and explain their difference. Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct’s scores rose from 2.83 to 3.57 out of 5 on Betoota; target grounding remained weak.
