How do you make an AI get the joke? Here's what I found on the web

Abstract:

Humour in interaction relies on general and domain-specific knowledge and can be formalised in terms of defeasible reasoning instances and types, i.e. enthymemes and topoi. This paper motivates the importance of defeasible reasoning for humour-enabled conversational AI and provides suggestions for incorporating it into spoken dialogue systems.
