One of the great things about a software keyboard (and open software) is that a different keyboard can be had with no more than a download. What is even more interesting is that by digitizing the keyboard, it can easily function in ways that were previously impossible. Recently I downloaded the beta for SwiftKey, an android software keyboard that aims to improve with a feature whose removal I've long bemoaned: predictive text. The short story is that I'm (naturally) very interested in the behavior of this software, and simultaneously impressed and disappointed at its performance. Quickly it became clear to me that I was witnessing artificial intelligence/machine learning, and aloof with a sense of uninhibited exploration I sought to set free the voice inside the machine. With minimal input, I guided the software in constructing sentences, in the process revealing patterns that were part of prior training. This is what my keyboard had to say:

Motorsport: Rally
Despite my fervent conviction that cars should not be used as they are, I'm actually something of a sucker for motorsports. In particular, it is with ceaseless amazement that I witness rallying. As far as forms of vehicle races go, few are in the same league as rally racing; certainly none require traversing such a diversity of surfaces, including none at all.
The World Rally Championship (WRC) is the best known international rally series. This video clearly shows that being a rally driver requires equal portions of insanity and talent, and, in the case of the co-driver, the ability to maintain literacy while under extreme duress. Coincidentally, the song played for most of the video is one that has also been showing up in my Pandora.
