Computers Suck at Poetry

Morning all!
A little something different for you all today in the form of an article I came across earlier in the week.
Computers Suck at Poetry

The creation of poetry is seen as one of the few truly “human” activities and the emulation of this by machines has been a goal for decades.
With all the recent developments in AI there have been a number of recent attempts at seeing how close machines are to reaching this goal, most recently in the form of a poetry competition where judges had to determine which entries were created by humans and which were generated by machines.
Thankfully, we won… this time. 😉
