Microsoft appears determined to work out the kinks in its approach to artificial intelligence, even after its Twitter bot went completely rogue last month, slinging racial slurs, denying the Holocaust and basically offending on every possible level.

So, a couple of weeks ago, Microsoft MSFT, -1.24% launched CaptionBot, and while this AI experiment hasn’t gone full Nazi, it’s still the subject of much Internet ridicule for its shortcomings.

The concept is that users upload a photo to the site and CaptionBot generates a caption of what it sees. The user then votes on its accuracy, and the algorithm supposedly learns and improves over time. The results vary from hilariously wrong to surprisingly on point.

These basically sum up how the experiment has gone so far:

But just because CaptionBot has delivered its share of clunkers, it doesn’t mean it’s useless. For one, it could be useful in uncovering conspiracies:

And, at the very least, it provides a workday distraction:

So, in the spirit of celebrating CaptionBot, let’s see how it fares when presented with the types of images commonly found strewn across MarketWatch.

CaptionBot is on a roll. Time to really put her to the test.

Holding a glass door? Who does that? Certainly not Sir Richard Branson.

Time is money? Nice try, CaptionBot.

Impressive. Almost perfect. Just a couple things missing.
