Weekend Round-Up: An Award-Winning Photograph, A Script-Writing Computer, And An Artist Doing Things Differently

A Computer Writes An Olive Garden Commerical

What do you get when a computer bot watches a thousand hours of Olive Garden commercials and then generates its own script? Pasta nachos, lasagna wings with extra Italy, and unlimited stick. This script has become a fav among the HODINKEE staff and it is remarkable both for the accuracy of the framework and the absurd nature of the fine details. It’s hilarious, weirdly inhuman, and just slightly creepy. Leave without me, I’m home. (Update: It has come to our attention that this script was not actually written by a bot. It is nevertheless very funny and worth a read).
