Funny is when it makes you laugh.
E.g: the comedian is funny
Amusing can be a weaker word for when it makes you laugh, but it can also be when it entertains you in any way.
E.g: The comedian is amusing, or I am amused by my favourite activities.
Interesting is when you find it intriguing.
Evolutionary biology is interesting.
