The Garlic Press

Inspiration

We thought about fighting against fake news. And then we realised it's way easier to generate it.

What it does

Kids these days don't have the attention span to watch a 30-second video. So we turn it into a Buzzfeed-style article, complete with emoji and GIFs. Scroll scroll scroll.

How we built it

We typed into a computer and hit refresh a lot.

Challenges we ran into

IBM Watson is brilliant, but very enterprise-y. It's pretty slow and we keep hitting API limits and 500 Internal Server Errors.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We make Trump look even stupider than usual!

What we learned

Emoji make everything better.

What's next for The Garlic Press

Bring on more Brexit news!
