Oh Great, Facebook Wants to Know When You're Being Sarcastic

RealClearTechnology - Oh Great, Facebook Wants to Know When You're Being Sarcastic:
"Facebook can’t detect sarcasm, for example.
If you post on your wall that you “just can’t wait for more news” about your long-estranged school friend’s daily calorie intake as they pursue yet another fad diet, it will take you at your word and send you “helpful” links to celebrity weight loss programmes. 
Deep learning is an attempt to tap into these more subtle aspects of human thought, building on what we have already achieved in machine learning."
