Owen Niblock: Calculating Comedy
Can a computer be funny? Will computer comedians ever replace humans on the stage? Owen Niblock looks at these questions and more as he delves into the fascinating world of Computational Humour. A light-hearted and informative look at the current state-of-the-art with special guests (both humans and computers).
