PoetBot
-
Just having a bit of fun with AI in hyperPad. Not sure where I’m going with this.
PoetBot is an Artificially Intelligent (or not so intelligent) poet that composes mostly bad (unless you’re a Vogon) poetry with a nature theme. Sometimes an interesting poem appears like:
night falling
silence sleeping
moon rising
shadow creepingSeveral styles of poems are created including 2-line couplets, 3-line tercets and Haiku-ish poems, 4-line quatrains, Lune form poems (3 words, 5 words, 3 words), and Lantern form poems (1 word, 3 words, 5 words, 3 words, 1 word).
The vocabulary words are stored in several arrays, one for each type of word (nouns, verbs, adjectives, etc.). Currently there are two themed vocabularies, a Nature them, and for those who like really bad poetry, a Vogon vocabulary. But be forewarned, Vogan poetry is the third worst in the universe!
Vogon PoetBot examples:
the fetid yellow liverslime…
in the putrid tinklewort
a coagula has burpedthe
radiant blumptiferous replurg
hurls near the putrid jandleturt
what slurps this
snot?Finally, if you branch the project and go into the scene titled “Other” there is a label “Arrays” with empty noun, verb, and adjective arrays where you can add words to create your own themes. Then add a button to the main menu page to goto your themed poetry page.
Have fun!
