I’ve got a funny animated Batman short for you to watch today that comes from comedian Keaton Patti. He claims to have fed an AI system 1000 hours of footage from Batman movies and then let the tech produce a script based on the things that it learned. The end result is hilarious.
I have to say, though, I didn’t realize there was 1000 hours of Batman movie footage! I imagine they had to include all of the TV shows and animated projects as well. Anyway, you can watch the short below, with animation by C4DNerd.
There were moments in this that had me laughing, like when Batman yells at Alfred to give birth to Robin. I hope you enjoy this wonderful ridiculousness!

Season four of Queer Eye officially dropped on Netflix earlier this month, and just in case you've already marathoned through all eight episodes, I'd like to direct your attention to a fake script for the show that might just be the funniest thing I've read all day. The script was shared to Twitter on Monday by comedian Keaton Patti. "I forced a bot to watch over 1,000 hours of Queer Eye and then asked it to write an episode of Queer Eye of its own," Patti tweeted. "Here is the first page." Just a little disclaimer, Patti didn't actually make a bot write the fake script. The script is one of many...

“Frasier” fans were listening on Wednesday when news broke that the sitcom could be returning — and as it turns out, some of them were choking on those tossed salads and scrambled eggs.
Following reports that “Frasier” star Kelsey Grammer, who played Dr. Frasier Crane on the beloved comedy from 1993 to 2004, is exploring a potential reboot, fans of the original show offered their thoughts on social media.
While there was no shortage of enthusiasts eager to see a return of the series, others expressed their reservations about the idea.

Of the naysayers, a significant portion felt that any potential reboot would be missing a key component in the form of John Mahoney, who played gruff family patriarch Martin Crane on the original series, and who died in February at age 77.

Last week, writer and comedian Keaton Patti showed how bots can be a force for good when he said he fed 1,000 hours of Olive Garden ads to a machine and asked it to write one of its own. The result was an absurdist nightmare in the mold of Heiner Müller’s Hamletmachine, a terrorscape where the “pasta nachos” are “warm…
