So a while ago I made my first Twitter [https://twitter.com/BotSingalong]/ Mastodon [https://botsin.space/@singalongbot] bot, a very simple little bot called TheSingalongBot [https://twitter.com/BotSingalong]. It came out of a chance conversation at the XOXO conference with Kate Compton and Gretchen McCulloch, and all it

How to make high-tech pies sound really old

A while ago I made a bunch of new pies [http://aiweirdness.com/post/167736100922/a-neural-network-invents-some-pies]. Well, I didn’t *make* them because they were neural network invented titles and although it tried to imitate the list of pies I gave it, the neural net’s imitations are imperfect. The

A neural network will write your D&D character bio

Thanks to the wonderful readers of this blog, I’ve been able to apply machine learning to Dungeons and Dragons data of all sorts. I trained a neural network to generate new D&D spells, first on a small dataset [http://aiweirdness.com/post/159363915392/new-dd-magic-spells-designed-by-neural-network] , then on a

The world is a chaotic and confusing place. Could advanced artificial intelligence help us make sense of it? Well, possibly, except that today’s “artificial intelligences” are not exactly what you’d call sophisticated. With a couple of hundred virtual neurons (as opposed to 16 billion neurons in the human

People use neural networks for translating languages, recommending movies, delivering ads, and more, but this here is one of my favorite applications: utter surrealism. Last year [http://aiweirdness.com/post/166814009412/a-neural-network-designs-halloween-costumes] I trained a neural network on 4,500 Halloween costumes that you readers helped me collect. This year,

(Images generated by BigGAN [http://aiweirdness.com/post/178619746932/imaginary-worlds-dreamed-by-biggan]) Neural networks are a kind of machine learning algorithm that learn to imitate the examples I give them. They’re pretty good at picking up on the feel of craft [http://aiweirdness.com/post/163753995072/craft-beer-names-invented-by-neural-network] beer [http://aiweirdness.com/

There’s a kind of neural network that learns to imitate whatever text you give it, whether that’s recipes [http://aiweirdness.com/tagged/recipes], song lyrics [http://aiweirdness.com/post/167596678562/disney-songs-sung-by-a-neural-network-with-a-very] , or even the names of guinea pigs [http://aiweirdness.com/post/162263942282/more-neural-network-guinea-pig-names]. Their imitations are often

Your pumpkin spice experience, brought to you by AI

Here in the Northern hemisphere, there’s finally a chill in the air, bringing with it an avalanche of decorative gourds and a generous helping of pumpkin spice. Let’s see if an artificial neural network can get into the spirit of things. Earlier, I trained a neural network to

There are a lot of strange courses that make it into a college course catalog. What would artificial intelligence make of them? I train machine learning programs called neural networks to try to imitate human things - human things they are absolutely are not prepared to understand. I’ve trained

Neopets foods might as well be the product of artificial intelligence

Remember Neopets [http://www.neopets.com/]? It’s an online game where you can raise virtual pets that can grow, train, and battle one another in a virtual arena. Although I’ve never played it, people keep mentioning Neopets to me because apparently Neopets has very weird foods. I found
