Google is using romance novels to teach its artificial intelligence (AI) system to better understand how people communicate.
Researchers at Google Brain, the company's AI-focused deep learning project, presented a paper earlier this month that detailed techniques they used to teach its AI to write fiction -- and the results were unexpectedly haunting.

The company then fed the model two sentences to serve as a starting point and endpoint and tasked it with generating transition sentences in between.
While some of the results were a bit nonsensical, others were surprisingly haunting (the researchers concede the source material is "often rather dramatic.")
You can read a few of the AI-generated excerpts below. The bolded sentences represent lines fed to the model by Google's researchers.
