gollark: My automated rap generatorIs far superior to puny human rappers laterIt is backed by the entire resourcesOf this random online dictionary and word relation query API resource isTechnically it still relies on human interventionTo produce the input text to turn into rap intentionAnd due to the limitations of current natural language processingIt is unable to significantly transform the input text reprocessingThis is because spoken human languagesAre mostly not designed with machine-parseability language isor ease of understandingas major goals expandingand were we using better-designed languages, automated rapwould surely be much easier. app
