I was thinking about the exact same app. Nice. Is each generation guaranteed to be unique ?

#12It might be a fun idea to get names from this and make projects around them. I got bookwark.js, I wonder what that is meant to do.
I got spackshacking...

#13One thing that I find amazing about this job is how it retarget the purpose of a neural network. This is not a classifier, this is not a here-are-a-bunch-of-fuzzy-images-tell-me-what-character-it-is.
This using knowledge, combines the fundamentals to create something new and plausible. A thin shadow of imagination?

#15I love how close some of these are to plausible.
"HelloWaurd", "ruby-franwork", "Contect-Server", "php-squere", "griend" (friend + grind?).
Also: "libdog". A library, for dogs. Does exactly what it says on the tin.

#16"check_crap" Fantastic.

#17I love this, the blog post is a great write-up. Not a trivial algorithm to implement (although a theoretically interesting one), kudos!
The board game names example in the blog post is hilarious, as an example of what happens when you have much less training data :)
Also, the map of the imaginary Township of La Lala in the header is brilliant.

#18This is cool. A few funny ones I found:

#19The post behind it has the show-stealing line, and it was written by the author.

Excellent write-up, and great visualizations of the hidden layers!

As far as I know the RBM is related to a proposed model on how/why we dream, so "imagination" is apt.
