As a teacher, I think the bot does provide some interesting ideas. I would totally love to teach an entire semester dictated by bots and algorithmic systems.Has anyone actually completed the AAB-generated projects? Can you tell us about any responses to the Twitter account? Yes! There seem to be two categories to finished assignments: the quick-and-dirty Internet link and a few actually handmade responses. Here are two recent examples:@jordan_yearsley @artassignbot that was easy pic.twitter.com/uOec2uJYv1— Art Assignment Bot (@artassignbot) June 8, 2014

What other projects are you currently working on?On the bot side, I have a little one that runs on my personal account that tweets periodically how many files my computer has open at any given moment. I’m interested in a diaristic relationship with technology, especially when it reveals sides we don’t consider. I have another little bot that will go live soon called Better Than Bot that makes random “this is better than that” statements. I’m hoping it sparks virulent arguments!— Emily Eifler (@emilyeifler) June 9, 2014
