Impressive output quality for a small model
From 1 comment
As someone who has trained around 60 GPT-2s, this is damn impressive work. It’s very hard to get consistent code quality when the training corpus is so small (as this one…

Objections
Pre-generated models are hand-curated, not generated live
From 2 comments
To be clear, wordplay seems to be all the author's doing. From the README: > When you simply open thisaidoesnotexist.com, the model names you'll see are hand curated and…
jacobajit on HNYeah I noticed that while refreshing because the same one came up again. Seems to go against the whole spirit of the “doesn’t exist” theme if it’s not auto generated IMO.

Site goes down under load and times out
From 2 comments
Got a 504 gateway timeout trying to generate one, but that's probably to be expected when you're on the top of HN.
noduerme on HNI got that too. It’s pregenerated. But what’s particularly impressive is that you can generate your own outputs on the fly. Usually with sites like these, it’s solely…

Blank page in Firefox
From 2 comments
On FF, I get a blank page. Given the domain name, I thought it was a joke until I came here and read the comments.

Questions
Is the output procedural or a fixed list?
From 2 comments
Are these procedural or is there a list of pre-generated "AI"s next goes thru? I got this as my third which seemed either prophetic or deterministic. HackerNewsReplyGuy: >from…
BbzzbB on HNLooks like we're currently getting a pre-defined set of 38 models: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/thesephist/modelexicon/main/models.json

Is it plain GPT-J with no fine-tuning?
From 2 comments
Wait, it’s just vanilla gpt-j? No fine tuning? “Back in my day, we had to train our own models..” already sounds anachronistic. Nicely polished. Looks like bmk (nabla theta) was…
