Robots and AI are getting a lot of news lately. I read something a little while ago - I think it was in Asia Times- about a Chinese student who used a handwriting robot to do her tedious homework. And a writing program wrote a short story that made it through the first round of a literary competition in Japan:

To be fair, though, humans gave it the words to use. I assume the program you posted about is similar, Jude?
Lali, some of the stories in your link are pretty wild.
But I really came in here to post this because I thought it was funny, in a dark humor sort of way:

Elderly Trump Critics Await Mueller's Report — Sometimes Until Their Last Breath
"It just was quiet for a little while," Walter Tendler recounted, "and then he just sits up in bed halfway and looks at me and he goes, 'S***, I'm not going to see the Mueller report, am I?' And that was really the last coherent thing that he said."
I could just see myself saying that...
And another bizarre fashion item hits the news:

Since its debut on the catwalk last week, the Jacquemus Mini Le Chiquito bag has had the fashion world in a spin – and the rest of the planet scratching its head.
Measuring a minuscule 5.2cm (two inches) long, the bag is smaller than a credit card and can fit in the palm of the wearer’s hand.
Its price has not been set yet, but the 4 x 2 inch version of the same bag sells for $500.
