I know poets who have had great fun by writing a poem that's more or less an ordinary poem in English, and then running it through multiple translate/retranslate sequences into other languages via Google Translate, ending up in English.

I like the effort behind the process, but I'm avoiding AI as much as possible. It just troubles me.

It's not really AI, though -- just plain old Google Translate, which has been around like forever.
