I Forced A Bot To Watch Over 1,000 Hours Star Trek Episodes And Then Asked It To Write 1000 Olive Garden Commercials.

I wish I could tell you I had a good reason why.

Anyway let’s use the GPT-2 345M model to recreate the viral (but not real) “I Forced a Bot” tweets that I named this site after… but with a trained model based on Star Trek.

I was going to do many different training materials and cover more of the original viral tweets, but the Star Trek Olive Garden Commercial samples are just killing me by themselves. I honestly think I could do nothing with GPT-2 but generate Olive Garden commercials from different models and never get bored. It deserves it’s own post!

Yellow Text is the prompt.

Context for this post.

See What Is This Site or tldr: a bunch of tweets went viral purporting to be written by bots, of which the Olive Garden one below was the most famous:

I experimented with some other prompts from the tweets too, so you might fine a few in there.

Update 1:

Link to some complete Star Trek scripts (where I keep generating until it literally says THE END on a line).
