Recommendations on social media and online entertainment platforms are derived from powerful machine-learning algorithms that monitor behavior patterns to suggest potential friends or connections, or the next series or film to watch on platforms such as Netflix. Predictive text on a smartphone also makes use of deep language learning to anticipate which words a user is likely to need next as they write a sentence. 
If similar machine-learning algorithms can be trained to produce massive language…
