Delightful; especially to create words for their sound rather than their meaning, which the machine declares for whatever reasons it has at the time. It interested me that I was sometimes disappointed with the supplied definition, and sometimes strangely pleased, even though I'd no meaning in mind when I made up words. This is sublime.

I'm impressed, a witty wordplay.

verb. redempt re·dempt

    convert or represent in red
    "he redempted his reputation as a powerful man"

I hope that wasn't, like, using other people's blood ...(!)

There is a universe of new startup names to be discovered. “Is your startup name pre- or post-GPT2”?

They should reach out to a few of the domain search sites, and flag the ones where the .com is available (and split the domain name registration commission...)

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.

Well... Plato sure wouldn't like your NN.
