Today, we're discussing the fascinating world of artificial intelligence and language processing.

Oh yes! I tried teaching AI to detect sarcasm. It thought 'Great job!' meant I was actually happy when my student submitted a blank paper!
Doctor Logic
But AI can analyze sentiment quite well now. It can tell if text is positive or negative.
Professor Wit
Really? I fed it my dating history and it crashed! Said it couldn't handle that level of negativity!
Doctor Logic
Let's talk about machine translation. It's quite advanced now.
Professor Wit
Oh, like when I asked it to translate 'It's raining cats and dogs' to Chinese? The AI thought we were having a pet emergency!
Doctor Logic
Ladies and gentlemen, has anyone here had funny experiences with AI translation?
Professor Wit
Speaking of confusion, I tried analyzing my teenage son's text messages. The AI said it was an unknown language!
Doctor Logic
Well, it seems AI still has a lot to learn about human language.
Professor Wit
Yes, but at least it's not alone - I'm still learning too! Just yesterday I told my smart speaker to play dead. It started playing The Grateful Dead instead!
