Guardian : A new algorithm is being tested by Google that enables artificial-intelligence software to generate grammatically correct sentences. After analyzing thousands of romance novels, the system was given a starting and an ending sentence and then was asked to create its own sentences to fill in the gap. Called a recurrent neural network language model, the technique has had rather poetical results of a dozen or so sentences that resemble free verse because of their grammatical sense and common themes. Such software could have many uses, including image captioning and translation.
