Python plays Mario
01/05/2023
Playing around with ChatGPT & Google Co-lab, I have this working script, that trains a model using neural networks, to play Mario. I’m really keen to play with this more, just need more time in my days!
pi drama
09/10/2021
Alerted by my darling wife yesterday that Arlo had stopped working, this usually means that the Raspberry Pi that runs Pi-Hole needs restarting… never looked into the issue, as this is few and far between. Checked my Twitter feed @DataAugmented, as a couple of python scripts that I have running on the same Pi post & retweet there… no activity for over 24 hours, bugger :p Reboot Pi… it hangs…
GPT-2 writes Beatles songs – Heiress?
08/03/2021
Here we go, never before heard songs by The Beatles… written not by Paul & John, but an AI algorythm (see what I did there) 🙂 Data grabbed from here: Beatles lyrics and the words they used most Here’s the first song, inspired by the last question addressed the the William Gibson model; Who is Voytek? The song is named Heiress, although think it will go by the name of…
Hard to believe it’s actually the year 2020! It’s a date used historically in sci-fi, and particularly a Cyberpunk RPG game I loved as a teen… so excited for the Cyberpunk 2077 title that’s coming in September! Games I’ve been playing: Modern Warfare – today reached level 155 in Season 1; heaps of fun, but the updates have been a nightmare having to download DLC packs multiple times Sekiro –…

Here’s a copy of the code I have working for the OpenAI GPT-2 1558M model A couple of changes to the source code that were required to get it to execute: tensorflow-gpu==1.12.0 wouldn’t work, updated to: !pip3 install tensorflow-gpu==1.16.0 interactive_conditional_samples.py updated to: model_name=’1558M’ https://github.com/AmbiguousError/gpt-2/blob/master/GPT_2.ipynb
GPT-2 1558M comments of Death Stranding
09/11/2019
I had to see what the GPT-2 1558M model thought of Death Stranding, here’s a Guardian article I sourced the first couple of paragraphs from: Death Stranding review – Hideo Kojima’s radically tough slow-burning epic Model prompt Death Stranding defies convention, focusing on “connection” over combat and (almost) removing the notion of restarting a mission when things go wrong. Case in point: I failed to plan a delivery route and…
OpenAI GPT-2 1558M has arrived
09/11/2019
Excited to hear about the release of Open AI’s 1.5 Billion GPT-2 model, had to take it for a test drive. Couldn’t produce a trained model on my own text as yet, but I did manage to load the 1558M model into Google Colab and run a couple of conditional samples. I grabbed the text from a Guardian articles on the flooding in Doncaster: Severe flood warnings remain in Midlands…
raspberry pi python projects
01/11/2019
My Raspberry Pi Python Twitter bot stopped posting last night. After I had strong words with it, and told it to pick up its game I deleted the cache database file and let it rebuild the history. This is something that I really need to fix, as my PiHole shows that my bot has made approx 191,383 calls to the twitter api in the last 24 hours… touch wood I’m…
2 geek successes this evening
17/10/2019
… or partial ones at least 🙂 Firebase Auto ML I’ve managed to create a simple Android app using Firebase Auto ML, that now detects Paw Patrol pups with a decent success rate. This success would have blown me away a year ago, sad now given exposure to Auto ML and Google’s sophisticated tools I just think this is ok… but I do have a couple of hypotheses to test…
Firebase AutoML
13/10/2019
So this weekend my Twitter bot dropped this link onto my feed: Firebase ML Kit: AutoML Vision Edge I’m currently working with auto ML in a professional manner, trialing both H2O and Azures Auto ML packages, so this piqued my interest! Having built mobile apps before in the early days of Android, and looking for a project to play with again, the timing of this was perfect. I’m still messing…
