ChatGPT is becoming more and more popular in everyday life. Nearly everyone with a smartphone either uses it or has heard of it. Its popularity grew even more with recent trends like creating Studio Ghibli-style images and collectible toy-style pictures.
Sure, ChatGPT is good for productive and useful kinds of stuff, but it’s also a perfect tool for pranks and hilarious surprises. After all, everyone deserves some fun.
There are plenty of ways using which you can prank and stun your friends using the immense capabilities of ChatGPT. Let’s see how.
Best Ways to Prank Your Friends and Family using ChatGPT
After going all around on the internet, we have listed below the top ways to prank or surprise your friends and family using ChatGPT and a simple prank.
1. Fake Girlfriend/Boyfriend Prank
If you’re single and want to play a funny prank on your friends, here’s a hilarious idea. Just upload a photo to ChatGPT and ask it to change the style, like Disney Pixar or Studio Ghibli, and tell it to add a girl or boy next to you in the picture.
You can also tell it to do the change in the original photo, but the results might not be as good as with other styles. Once the image is ready, download it and share it on social media. Then sit back and see the magic!

PROMPT – Convert this image into Studio Ghibli Image (REPLACE WITH YOUR OWN DESIRED IMAGE STYLE) and add a girl next to the main character. The girl must (CHARACHTERISTICS) look like.
2. Fake tourist destination prank
We all have a friend who loves cancelling trips and plans at the end moment. Well, now it’s your time to surprise them by using ChatGPT. Simply tell the AI to replace the background of your image and convert the image into Studio Ghibli or an original image, or anything you want. Now upload the image with the caption mentioning the location.
P.S. – You can also tell the ChatGPT to add friends in the image to make it look more realistic.

PROMPT – Convert the background of this image into (EXPLAIN THE SCENARIO) and then turn into (IMAGE STYLE). Make sure to maintain the origninality of the image and the main charachter and not to modify it much.
3. Car crash prank
This prank is going to be really hilarious! Just take a picture of your friend or family member’s car, use ChatGPT to make it look like it’s been in a crash, and then send the edited photo to them. But be careful; don’t be around them when you do it, because who knows how they’ll react! You do not need to change the image style here, and you’d be windblown once you see the results.

PROMPT – I want to do a prank on my friend. Can you please make the car in the image look like I crashed it?
4. Movie prank
We all have that one super popular movie we missed in theatres. Now you can prank your friends! Just ask ChatGPT to create a fake photo of you sitting in a theatre watching that movie. Send it to them and watch their shocked reaction. Also, use any image style, such as Studio Ghibli, for making the prank more fun, as using a realistic image style may leave some loopholes in the image.

PROMPT – Create an image in (IMAGE STYLE) and display myself inside a theatre watching (MOVIE TITLE) movie. Make the main character pose in (POSE MOVE). Make sure to display an iconoic scene of the movie in the screen.
You can make fake wedding invites, silly stories, or even pretend you’re in a crazy situation, and the ChatGPT will help make it funny.
There are so many ways to trick your loved ones (in a good way!), and the AI always comes up with something entertaining. Just keep it light and make sure everyone laughs. It’s always a good idea to use AI to have fun with your close ones.
