Wow. GPT2 is so, so, so much better than Markov chains. I'm reading these definitions, and the fact that the last few words of the sentence match the first few words subject-wise is pretty amazing. Just some random ones: > denoting or relating to a word (e.g., al-Qadri), the first letter of which is preceded or followed by another letter > a synthetic compound used in perfumery and cosmetic surgery to improve the app…

I always like to point people to /r/SubSimulatorGPT2 [1] as a good example of what GPT2 is able to accomplish. It's a subreddit filled entirely with bots, each user is trained on a specific subreddit's comments matching it's username (so politicsGPT2Bot is trained on comments from the politics subreddit). Go click through a few comment sections and see how mind-bendingly real some comment chains seem. They reply quot…

One major tool that I can think of is the TSA. The TSA is a tool to keep us safe, not to keep us safe. I believe the government and TSA have become a one party system. They use the TSA as a way to keep us safe, and then use the TSA as a weapon against us if we're too annoying. A lot of people do not understand the government or TSA. It's very easy to do what I mentioned above.

Got a few comments about that one and a few others! I just updated the existing word blacklist and re-deployed.

I got "cyberpolice" which seems to be a real word. I also got "deflategate" which i love - it must be an upcoming scandal! :-)

> it must be an upcoming scandal!

It was, in 2016.

Deflategate was a National Football League (NFL) controversy involving the allegation that New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady ordered the deliberate deflation of footballs used in the Patriots' victory against the Indianapolis Colts in the 2014 American Football Conference (AFC) Championship Game.

Great stuff. Found a real word: refactoring the systematic and systematic reworking of a piece of text to reduce unnecessary redundancies Interesting that the made-up definition is pretty much the real one. https://www.thisworddoesnotexist.com/w/refactoring/eyJ3IjogI...

If you're using a blacklist, it it really machine learning? Or are you using it to re-train?

It gave me "Intermodulate" a minute ago. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermodulation

That ones a little more fuzzy; intermodulate doesn't occur very much in discourse (e.g. not in the wiki article at all) even though it would naturally be related

Bordellum. It's a word, I think?

https://www.thisworddoesnotexist.com/w/disaproval/eyJ3IjogIm...

Disaproval. So close to a real word it looks like a misspelling.

Anyway, this is really interesting.

I love this:

    nonfatalism
    non·fa·tal·ism

        the belief that one's parents don't have sex for the same reason as oneself
        "a nonfatalism argument"
Or:

    brainsack
    brain·sack

        a sharp crack or slit in the surface of sea or sky
        "a slushy brainsack close to shore"
Brainsack is a sharp crack on the surface of the sky. Amazing.
