Earlier quoted context omitted.

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

https://www.thisworddoesnotexist.com/w/bordellum/eyJ3IjogImJ... 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.

For the latter, press the "Write Your Own" button and it'll do exactly that

In general, I don't fix a random seed so in general you can get different definitions (sometimes: I cache data)

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...

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

I also got «invention» up as a result.

This is amazing:

quintessay

1. a piece of writing (usually one of short or noibid) expressing or expressing a person's view, especially the concept of something abstract or self-subsistent. "the main quintessay of feminist theory."

2. a word that does not exist; it was invented, defined and used by a machine learning algorithm.

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

blacklist is probably to avoid cases where it randomly generates a real word like above two cases, so that blacklist filter is probably applied after the ml stuff.

Oh, I'm surprised the "blacklist" isn't just the standard English dictionary. I'm sure I'm just being naive though. Why not just blacklist any word that already exists in English?
