Last week I trained a neural network to generate new messages for candy hearts. They were, well, unique.

My training data was really small, though - I could only find about 360 existing messages total. So, when I decided to generate some more messages, I decided to add my favorite neural network-generated messages to the original dataset, increasing the total to almost 500. This is still really small for a neural network, but a noticeable upgrade.

The first thing I noticed is the definite upswing in the number of messages involving bears. In fact, I’m seeing worrying signs of a bear-based feedback loop that might lead to 100% bear content after a few more iterations of this.

BE MY BEAR
LOVE BEAR
STACK BEAR
LOOK BEAR
WINK BEAR
HOME BEAR
TWEET BEAR
TAME BEAR
DEARY BEAR
BEAR BEAR
TIME BEAR

In addition to the bears, the neural network still managed to produce some complimentary messages.

ME LOVE HAVE
SWEET TANK
OOO
NICE
CUTEY LIDS
YOU RANK
BEST MANE
HEAT TEAM
HOT GIVE

And some that are less easy to interpret.

BEE O O
MAGE LOVE
IN A FAN
BOOK
WEAR ME
LET’S RIND
CLOUD ME
YAK O WAY
FRARR ME
YOU ARE BARE
SWEET BOG
BEELT POSWRORD U?GHCLENCY U

Use these with caution.
