It is also a great example as to the current limitations of AI and Deep Learning, regardless of what the PR flacks would have you believe.

"The song, entitled 'Downtiration Tender love' was created by media agency Search Laboratory and its "character-based Recurrent Neural Network," that uses Google's open-source machine learning software, TensorFlow loaded up with 999 snippets from the world's greatest love songs."
