Some of them are pretty clever and could have easily become slang given enough time. My first result was "upboard" which describes all the wood on a sailboat that is above the water.

For slang, I'm training another modelusing urban dictionary as the datasource. I hope to release it someday but there is a lot of work to be done to clean the data. The articles are huge, user-generated and full of racism.

Or deciding company/domain names.

This project is one huge yak shave starting from that idea! I was trying to pick a company name in the AI space and thought it would be appropriate if it was generated by ML. I tried a few datasets for training, and using the Oxford English Dictionary led me here

This is the most cromulent tool I can think of for nameogenesis.

This is pretty cool but I am getting some strange results sometimes: https://imgur.com/a/rv0wHN1

That's not ideal and probably picking up some of the original training set from GPT-2 (this model is bolted on top of it)! How about DUOLINGOLOGY instead https://bit.ly/3fPGP8q I'm using a blacklist to reject "real" words but it's surprisingly hard to build for rare words. I'm up to ~600K items after parsing Wikipedia tokens and it still doesn't capture everything.

It seems to make compound words just like humans do

gigafactory

nonplayable

waterboy

pepperjack

unreimbursed

interop

nonalloyed
