Google squirrels into human brains with Scribe experiment
Google has created an atmosphere of McCarthyism and a postage stamp-sized image of what the hell the world will look like if us hacks use the firm's latest creepy tool, dubbed Scribe. In case you're wondering, the opening sentence of this story was written (almost entirely) in the latest feature to hit Google Labs, which is …
If it can correct usage of There/They're/Their Your/You're etc. then the world would be a better place.
And it's not all that different from the auto-suggestion features you find on smartphones really (coming soon to Android do you think?).
I'm almost immune the there/their/they're now. My bugbear is the people who don't know how to spell would have/could have.
Sigh!
It's an automated version of a roomful of monkeys with typewriters. Same effect, less of the inconvenience associated with large quantities of bananas and monkey shit.
So, if I compile a bookmarks list full of the Kip's works, will it let me write in his style too? Hmmm, there's gold in them thar hills, me thinks...

Even if your recipes *were* exceedingly tasty.
As Groucho said when asked, 'do you like Kipling?' - 'I don't know. I've never kippled.'
So *that's* what the developers of Buzz, Wave, WarDriv..(eh..it's not called that when *we* do it) et al have been moved onto.
So drag enough junk into it and it will automate your spam emails - which might appear to be of human enough source to make it through the filters.
You can kinda make a game out of accepting every suggestion until you get bored.

.. txt language into standard English it'll allow the txtng generation to create meaningful CVs. Which is probably a bad thing.
So it doesn't get my vote!
are anything like the audio on google translate, it'll last 5 minutes. Let's NOT have google 'deciding' what we want to say.
One million monkeys - $10
One million typewriters - $10

I'm positive management in my company has been using a similar tool to write policy announcements for the last ten years. It's just that now Google is providing a free version.

Amanfrommars has been using this all along!
