Very suave… 
All of mine are coming out really nightmarish. Like missing eyes and shit.
That’s because the algorithm is made for humans, not dogs
Seriously though, it clearly has no idea what to do with my squinty Asian eyes. Bummer.
Are the robots xenophobic? 
Only as xenophobic as their programmers.
I think there’s just not very much physical variation to work with between the typical portrait subjects.
This shouldn’t be an issue in this case. The programmer is Japanese…
I’m hoping that wet limp comb-over is AI artistic license
I will not confirm nor deny it.
Original Abed speech from Community
“There is skill to it. More importantly, it has to be joyful, effortless, fun. TV defeats its own purpose when it’s pushing an agenda, or trying to defeat other TV or being proud or ashamed of itself for existing. It’s TV; it’s comfort. It’s a friend you’ve known so well, and for so long you just let it be with you, and it needs to be okay for it to have a bad day or phone in a day, and it needs to be okay for it to get on a boat with Levar Burton and never come back. Because eventually, it all will.”
GPT-2 output after being fed the first sentence:
There is skill to it. More importantly, it has to be joyful, effortless, fun. TV defeats its own purpose when it’s pushing an agenda, or trying to defeat other TV or being proud or ashamed of itself for existing. On a deeper level, it is too unsure, too cool, too competitive with itself and sometimes that pushes kids away from watching. I’m talking about shows that lack soul. Instead, I’d ask for one that is fun, that stimulates thinking, that leaves you wanting to see more, that leaves you questioning your own existence and how that existence works. And you know what? I will hold the United Kingdom against you, as to what we’re lacking. What we might be lacking. Because I

This week, Tsai Ing Wen started her second term as president of Taiwan. Although largely ceremonial, the office has enormous implications for Taiwan’s future, particularly the future direction of economic development. While Tsai’s presidency was capped off with an apparent victory over her Nationalist opponent, it remains to be seen whether Taiwan can open up and flourish with a new era of change. Before Tsai’s arrival, Taiwan had been saddled with a failing economy and the debilitating legacy of fifty years of political turmoil and political impasse. A series of failed trade deals with China – the “1992 Consensus” – crippled cross-strait relations, damaged the standing of both the Nationalists and the democratic opposition, and forced Taipei to rely more heavily on Chinese resources
Holy crap, that’s machine generated? How much Taiwan political pieces was in GPT2’s training data?
Yep.
It’s the third result with the same input sentence, but still impressive!
Reads like typical Chinese speaker editorials .

The robots will never achieve a level of cuteness that’s even vaguely comparable to real shepherd dogs.
Fearing the competition, aren’t you?
Not until they start hunting rabbits…
The day when the robots take over jobs of KTV hostesses in Taiwan 
It will actually be just a hardware update to this robot herding the sheep
