I became extremely interested in computer science, especially fields that utilize artificial intelligence. I enjoyed the thought of creating a synthetic mind to live on my computer, so I took a course to teach me all of the basics. It was through this course that I was able to create a text-generating RNN (Recurrent Nural Network), one with the sole purpose of generating recipes, which for the most part were disgusting. I have since then created a new model that is tasked with continuing the four gospels.
First SemesterI had done a lot of research in the field of artificial intelligence, especially in areas where there is a potential to replace human positions. For example, I was very interested in self-driving vehicles, and their implementation in the real world. This is a good time to discuss the dangers of artificial intelligence, as this self-driving technology has gone off the rails, speeding up to near double the speed limit, and quite literally ending lives. I wanted to see if my technology competes with humans, and so far, it does not. I had also figured out that I wanted to transition focus from the recipes to religion. This was with the help of my IP10 classmates who approved this idea right after the discussion of a gambling ring. Soon after I compiled the entire King James Bible into a .txt file since the AI would need a way to look over the text. This had proved too large for the AI to handle so instead I opted for generating different sections of the text. My sermon will be created from the four gospels.
Second Semester
I learned how to create a sermon with the help of Youtube, and completed the combination of the four gospels.
When preachers create their sermons they use one of the four gospels, Mathew, Mark, Luke, and John, which are supposedly all interpretations of the same story. Also what I am doing, trying to write my own bible, may be some sort of heresy, this is up for debate though, and I expect to learn the true answer when I reach the pearly gates. I also did much more research into the field of RNNs and how to deal with overfitting. Also preparing data for the AI to use, since any old text file will not work, and has to be prepared in a specific way if I don't want an output containing just four words.
