Ha! NLP still does not get 'time flies like an arrow' phrase.
It still thinks 'time flies' is a compound noun, apparently some kind of time-travelling flies.
I remember reading about computers being confused by this phrase in 80s and 90s. Apparently, not much progress here.
- wodenokoto 11y agoNo, it gets "time flies like an arrow", but it can't handle the garden path in "time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana." Which humans with only one pass can't either.
