Seed word: Donald Trump
“If only stupidity wasn’t the key to Donald Trump’s plans.”
Seed word: Trump
“The best way to educate yourself about Donald Trump's incompetence is to spend twenty minutes reading the Wikipedia article on Donald Trump.”
Seed word: blm
“As a country, we are not ok. We’re not tolerant, we’re not kind, we’re not inclusive, we’re not respectful.”
I wonder which lists of twitter users they used for training.
Probably Blue Checkmarks, i.e. those whose identities and opinions have been verified.
A fun exercise would be to train one instance on Blue Checkmarks and another on a dump from Gab. Once trained these two instances can start their own private battle of words. Let it run for a few days and see how it devolves, then use the results to write an article on the futility of ideological battles on social media. Publish this article widely so that the populace may read it and come to their senses.
I'd love to see a version trained on individual subreddits (and HN separately). A bit like /r/subredditsimulator
