This Trump speech written by Artificial Intelligence is as nonsensical as the real deal

This Trump speech written by Artificial Intelligence is as nonsensical as the real deal | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

After feeding 270,000 words into a computer program that studies language patterns, The New Yorker got a result that’s about as awful as the real thing. The neural network studied each of these 270,000 words, as well as how they fit together contextually and came up with, well, this:


The preceding speech was written entirely by this AI language model. Unlike human speech, The New Yorker could dial the program up from one to five, each with its pros and cons. Level one, for example, is fairly accurate speech, albeit with lots of repetition. At level five, we see the program work at full capacity, but what comes out is, believe it or not, actually more nonsensical than Trump’s actual speech.


In my estimation, the real Donald Trump falls somewhere between levels one and two. There’s lots of repetition, a few made up words, and a lot of random nonsense. On his better (worse?) days, he could even approach a level three, but only at times. Interesting, but as the video proves: we’re not quite there yet....

A Donald Trump speech written by Artificial intelligence? You betcha! And the result is bigly hilarious!

16 of the Best Motivational Speeches of All Time

16 of the Best Motivational Speeches of All Time | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it
Some days you just want to put your feet up, eat buffalo chicken nachos, and watch Netflix -- and not even good Netflix, but some crappy movie that you're only watching because you've given up on being productive and are complicit in filling your brain with dim-witted, mind-numbing entertainment. But hey, sometimes that's what it takes to recharge your batteries. A nice little brain vacation.

Of course, when you've got a deadline looming, or a big presentation coming up, and your coworkers (and/or customers) are depending on you, taking a brain vacation isn't really an option. In such cases, when you can't afford to lollygag, you need to be able to silence your inner couch potato and get your head in the game. You need to be able to dig down deep, find your inner strength, give 110%, and ... look, I'll admit it: Motivational speeches aren't really my thing.

So in lieu of writing you one, I've found 16 of the greatest motivational speeches from across the worlds of business, sports, entertainment, and more. And while the messages vary greatly from speech to speech, they can all help you get in the right frame of mind for tackling your next big challenge.
