Google's experimental orbital datacenter prototype has transmitted a haiku it generated in space, using one of its TPU chips aboard the satellite. The stunt is a demonstration of computing hardware operating off-planet, with the satellite effectively acting as a small datacenter in orbit. Commenters are amused that the satellite's first meaningful output was poetry, at considerable cost per line.
