    • Correction: They haven't quite yet figured out how to curb trollish behavior on the Internet.

      Quote: The Algorithms fared well at catching irrelevant comments and deciphering sentiments...researchers agreed with...judgments on comments taken at random from their data 65 to 80 percent of the time...lot of room for improvement...[The Algorithms] face challenges judging when people are being sarcastic or when the meaning of words might change with context. Recognizing that “terribly good” actually implies a positive sentiment, for instance...[The Algorithms] COULD learn to recognize signals of sarcasm with things like emoticons that convey the actual sentiment... :Unquote

      Basicly it still needs quite a bit of work, or at least to have the reasearchers agreeing with the judgements the system made 95 to 99 percent of the time.

      Didn't you even read your own article that you posted? (Constructive Crtisisim, not an Insult)
