One of the many impressive things about neural networks is how well the same basic algorithm can adapt to very different kinds of problems. I’ve used the same framework, Char-rnn [https://github.com/karpathy/char-rnn], to produce things like recipes [http://lewisandquark.tumblr.com/post/140219420017/the-silicon-gourmet-training-a-neural-network-to] , Dr. Who

The neural network will name your next band

An important part of starting a new band is choosing an appropriate name. It is crucial that the name be unique, or you could risk at best confusion, and at worst an expensive lawsuit. The neural network is here to help. Prof. Mark Riedl of Georgia Tech, who recently provided

More 80s action figures from the neural network

Earlier, I posted a collection of action figure names [http://lewisandquark.tumblr.com/post/161131639137/80s-action-figures-designed-by-neural-network] generated by a neural network trained on a list of about 3,700 action figures from the 1980s and 1990s, from lines including Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, G.I. Joe, Transformers, and My Little

Part of the power of a recursive neural network is that the same framework can teach itself to generate text in a huge variety of styles. So far I’ve used it to generate things like recipes [http://lewisandquark.tumblr.com/post/140219420017/the-silicon-gourmet-training-a-neural-network-to] , Dr. Who episode titles [http://lewisandquark.

So it turns out you can train a neural network [http://lewisandquark.tumblr.com/post/160776374467/new-paint-colors-invented-by-neural-network] to generate paint colors if you give it a list of 7,700 Sherwin-Williams paint colors [https://images.sherwin-williams.com/content_images/sw-pdf-sherwin-williams-color.pdf] as input. How a neural network basically works is

So if you’ve ever picked out paint, you know that every infinitesimally different shade of blue, beige, and gray has its own descriptive, attractive name. Tuscan sunrise, blushing pear, Tradewind, etc… There are in fact people who invent these names for a living [https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/

Artificial intelligence claims it has written a cake recipe.

I’m training a neural network to generate recipes [http://lewisandquark.tumblr.com/post/140219420017/the-silicon-gourmet-training-a-neural-network-to] based on a database of about 30,000 example recipes. One of the recipe titles it invents most often is cake - Chocolate Cake, Chocolate Chocolate Chocolate Cake, Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Chips, etc.

Metal band names invented by neural network

The question of the day: can a computer learn to sound metal? Thanks to HellBlazer of http://www.metal-archives.com/, who provided a dataset of over 100,000 bands, subgenres, and countries of origin, I had an opportunity to find out. I gave the dataset to an open-source neural network
