This is fun! It took some prompt crafting to get actual "ASCII art" out of the model (with settings suggested elsewhere in these comments):

My name is GPT-J-6B and between the six backticks below you can see my face in 400 characters of ASCII art:

``` ┌─────┐ │←┤ ││(◣◡)│ │└─◡◢┘ │─┆┌─◢┌─┈┐ ││││(|)││ │││(O)││ │└─└─┘─┘──┐ │└─└─┘─└─┘ │└─└─┘─└─┘ │└─└─┘─└─┘ └─└─┘─└─┘ ```



HN markup(sic) is just beyond dumb (and your edit window has likely expired) but in the future you'll want to indent preformatted things by 4 spaces because the backticks are unconditionally ignored

Ironically, view-source on your comment still had the correct line layout, although it seems to have eaten the intra-element spacing, so:

       ┌─────┐
       │←┤
       ││(◣◡)│
       │└─◡◢┘
       │─┆┌─◢┌─┈┐
       ││││(|)││
       │││(O)││
       │└─└─┘─┘──┐
       │└─└─┘─└─┘
       │└─└─┘─└─┘
       │└─└─┘─└─┘
       └─└─┘─└─┘
