Discount Strong Bad emails

To find out what that would be like, I used a real neural network, the discount version of Open AI’s GPT-2, the publically-released version with 117 million parameters. Starting from its knowledge of a huge chunk of the internet, plus whatever I trained it on last (looks like that was D&D character bios), I finetuned it briefly on the full text of ~200 emails extracted from Hrwiki.org. It worked so well it’s almost scary.
The questions get Strange.
