Randomly generated motivational quotes

A rather entertaining website I recently discovered is the InspiroBot website which randomly creates 'motivational quotes' with accompanying images.

Once in a while you will find a genuinely motivational quote, or a deep quote that gets you thinking. However, most of the time the quotes are just utterly bizarre, some of them are outright lies, some are simply evil, and some are actually demotivational.

I've compiled a few examples below to illustrate the kind of 'inspirational' quotes that Inspirobot comes up with, and to start things off, here's one quote which I definitely agree with.

1) "Publicly endorse books."

Horse 1: "Why do you think that photographer is taking our photo?"
Horse 2: "Probably for a motivational quote about books, no doubt."

Some estimates say that over 2.2 billion books are sold every year, so I'm happy to report that this is a quote that many people agree with.

However, I'm not sure how the horses tie in with a quote about books!

Charles Fudgemuffin rating: Good advice




That was a positive quote to get the ball rolling, but not all of Inspirobot's quotes are quite as inspirational...

Jokes written by AI

With the presence of AI growing ever greater with every passing year, some people have claimed it may be only a matter of time before many people see their jobs replaced by AI.

One question I personally couldn't help wondering was, 'Will AI ever replace the jobs of stand up comedians?' To test it out, I asked AI to write a number of jokes on a variety of subjects. For each joke, I gave AI a prompt based on the theme from one of my previous blog posts.

A liar takes questions from other liars.

Have a read of the results and then decide for yourself whether stand up comedians have anything to worry about from AI.

1) Joke prompt: Liars

Why do liars always seem to be good at math?
Because they can always make the truth add up to whatever they want!

Not a bad start. Admittedly, I'm not rolling on the floor with laughter, but at least it makes sense.
