Patent ID: 11080485

Abstract:
Joke recognition methods include using server(s) coupled with data store(s) to communicatively couple with a first computing device through a telecommunications network. A first communication is provided to a user through a user interface of the first computing device or is received through the user interface. A second communication is provided to the user through the user interface or is received through the user interface. In response to providing or receiving the second communication, the server(s) determine whether the second communication, relative to the first communication, includes a joke and/or a punchline. Upon determining that the second communication includes a joke and/or a punchline, the server(s) initiate sending one or more responses to the first computing device. The response(s) initiate providing, through the user interface, an indication to the user that the second communication is recognized as a joke/punchline. Systems for joke recognition provide the disclosed joke recognition methods.
