Montag is a New Magazine Written Entirely by AI

Artificial Intelligence is taking over a lot of fields past providing valid contributions and enhancing the solutions we already have for well-known pre-established problems. The field where AI didn't quite conquer is artistic writing and journalism. Well, at least till I came across Montag.

Montag is a mag that is written past AI. Yeah, you read that right. The AI comes from a Berlin-based startup, Grover. There is a dedicated website for the mag registered every bit montag.wtf. They also have montag.xyz on which new stories are published every Monday.

The contents for the manufactures are scraped from the net using shell scripts and Python scripts. The scraped text then goes through a neural network which produces the output in effectually an hour and 15 minutes. If you lot're interested to know the backside the scenes details regarding how this is done, check out the Medium commodity here written by Kathryn Lawrence, who is also the co-founder of Montag Magazine.

However, the AI has not learned to printing the Publish push button past itself nevertheless. Ms.Lawrence is taking care of the same. Check out this conclusion of an commodity published in the magazine titled "Can yous exist too happy? And other ridiculous questions posed by humans in the search of "true" happiness" beneath:

"Truthfully, it is clear that for long-term growth the oyster-shell of your life needs a scrap of grit so that a pearl of happiness develops. Nonetheless, if you're looking for a #HappinessLifehack, information technology's probably worth aiming for extreme happiness and missing, rather than erring on the side of circumspection and introducing the painful $.25 deliberately.

Life is pretty good at taking happiness away without inquiring whether it's OK with yous first. And maybe that's the all-time globe-view from both a personal and – gasp – fiscal perspective. Endlessly searching the gaping void that is the internet for hacks, tricks and workarounds is probably depression ROI when y'all could just accept that whatsoever level of happiness is a fine place to be.

Because happiness is, as even capitalist tome The Economist points out, a pretty skillful trouble to have."

To exist honest, I would have totally believed that this was written by a human being if I had casually visited the website and it shows how far AI has come in reproducing content. Does that mean journalists would be replaced past AI soon? Nope, since AI can't offer opinions and perspectives, at least not even so.
