How to put it together
- 1
Put on the solid black long-sleeve shirt and matching black pants to create a clean, dark-mode background.
- 2
Cut the foam board into a large rectangle, rounding the corners slightly to mimic a smartphone screen or a digital tablet.
- 3
Paste the green OpenAI spiral logo at the top center of the board to clearly identify the brand.
- 4
Use a thick black marker to write a funny prompt and response on the board, such as 'User: Give me a costume idea.' followed by 'ChatGPT: You are looking at it.'
- 5
Attach two loops of black ribbon or webbing to the back of the foam board using strong tape so you can wear it over your shoulders like a sandwich board.
- 6
Outline the edges of the board with the battery-powered green LED lights, securing them with clear tape, and tuck the battery pack into your pocket.
Makeup & hair
Keep your hair sleek and modern. Optional: Apply a touch of metallic silver eyeshadow or a green glow-in-the-dark face paint accent to lean into the futuristic robot aesthetic.

ChatGPT costume FAQ

- What should the chat bubble say?
- Keep it funny and relevant! A great option is: 'Prompt: Write a last-minute costume guide.' followed by 'Response: Just wear black and carry a cardboard sign.'
