I'll cut to the chase—because a man who took the time to make a computer fart clearly cares and respects, above all, other people's time.

I recently noticed a project called AudioGPT on HuggingFace:

* [https://huggingface.co/spaces/AIGC-Audio/AudioGPT](https://huggingface.co/spaces/AIGC-Audio/AudioGPT)

It is a transformer capable of performing a variety of impressive audio tasks, including generation! You can make dog barks, guitar riffs, drum solos...

The guitar riff and drum solo were interesting, if a bit disjointed and uncanny. I can imagine this will only improve, like so much other AI work happening right now.

But I know why you came here. You want to hear a computer fart.

Well, there you have it.

It also immediately passed the [Turing test](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_test) by proceeding to _deny_ the fart it had generated when I uploaded the file it had just given me and asked it to identify the sound:

It claims the sound file "contains some pigs oinking twice."

🤨

It's not the [singularity](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technological_singularity)... but it'll do.
