Deep Drumpf: the Twitter bot trying to out-Trump the Donald

in #reality8 years ago

Dear friends, let's have a rest a little from spiritual and scientific, and we will listen that I found today :))

“OK, it’s amazing right now with Isis, I tell you what? I don’t want them to vote, the worst very social people. I love me.”
Donald Trump may be a “really smart person” by his own estimation, but his speeches are now fuelling a really smart Twitter bot, which uses artificial-intelligence technology to copy the Republican frontrunner.
The quote above comes from “Deep Drumpf” rather than the real Trump, with the account running on algorithms created at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab.


“The bot is based on an artificial-intelligence algorithm that is trained on just a few hours of transcripts of Trump’s victory speeches and debate performances,” wrote Adam Conner-Simons from the MIT lab, in a blog post introducing Deep Drumpf.
The bot is named after a recent segment on the Last Week Tonight with John Oliver TV show, where Oliver encouraged opponents of Trump to rebrand him by his original family name, “Drumpf”.

Conner-Simmons explained how the bot works:

“The bot creates Tweets one letter at a time. For example, if the bot randomly begins its Tweet with the letter ‘M,’ it is somewhat likely to be followed by an ‘A,’ and then a ‘K,’ and so on until the bot types out Trump’s campaign slogan, ‘Make America Great Again.’ It then starts over for the next sentence and repeats the process until it reaches the 140-character limit.
The Tweetbot’s creator, CSAIL postdoc Bradley Hayes, used techniques from ‘deep-learning,’ a field of artificial intelligence that uses systems called ‘neural networks’ to teach computers to to find patterns on their own. Hayes was inspired by an existing training model that can simulate Shakespeare, as well as a recent report that analysed the presidential candidates’ linguistic patterns to find that Trump speaks at a fourth-grade level.”

As of yet, the real Trump has yet to respond to his Twitter bot, despite Deep Drumpf making one attempt to engage him in conversation.


Also I want to tell what began to be done already other bots on this principle, so for example made the Tweet on Ramzan Kadyrov, it is known a policy in the former CIS countries, it is amusing to look as technologies quit on the new level, the main thing everything to do intelligently, and that AI doesn't sleep ;)
I thank for attention!

This is the best thing ever. Also the bot would probably make a better president.

hahaha! yes :))
