Around Valentine’s Day in the US and UK, these things called candy hearts (or conversation hearts or sweethearts) appear: small and sugary, bearing a simple, short Valentine’s message. There are only room for a few characters, so they read something like “LOVE YOU” or “CALL ME” or “BE MINE”.
I collected all the genuine heart messages I could find, and then gave them to a learning algorithm called a neural network. Given a set of data, a neural network will learn the patterns that let it imitate the original data - although its imitation is sometimes imperfect. The candy heart messages it produced… well, you be the judge [....]
Comments
Candy hearts vs mind & machine learning - age-old conflicts of intellect vs emotion, man vs robots & technology, mechanical male approaches to try to satisfy female yearnings... and cute witty stuff that will rot your teeth. Happy Valentine's, everyone...
