This project is made up of two bots: Reuben and Cherise.

It uses Microsoft Azure's Cognitive Services to generate a caption for an image.

It runs on AWS Lambda

The project began with Reuben, a bot to handle posting caption for my personal photos. Each time I post a photo to my Instagram, Reuben will generate a caption and post the image and caption to my Twitter and Facebook.

Example: https://twitter.com/rappidmatt/status/957844021740736512

Demoing this project requires posting to my personal Instagram account.

Cherise will be a Twitter account. Anyone can tweet it an image and it will quote tweet the image with the caption.
