I think generating fortune cookies is a really low hanging fruit for current AI. Someone could put it together in a week-end.

  I am the main developer. You are literally right on the time spent... Our original focus was writing a research paper on hierarchical music generation. Composing a song from an image is just one of the "fun applications" that we spent a little time on, to promote the interestingness of our method. I started Saturday afternoon, and was basically done by Sunday night.

    Well, your project is quite a bit more complex than just making fortune cookie messages. Still amazing how much can be accomplished quickly with current AI tech. Thumbs up for the cool project.

  I once developed a hierarchical Markov chain, and I decided to use it to generate fortune cookie wisdom because I thought people would be more willing to overlook grammatical mistakes or be willing to interpret it as an expression of deep truth. http://www.kylem.net/stuff/fortunes.html http://www.kylem.net/stuff/fortunes.html (You might need to increase the "sense" parameter.)
