Inspiration
Me and Ryan wanted to learn more about machine learning since we were both intrested in the subject beforehand and decided on a chatbot using minGPT as the frame
What it does
The program will answer the user's question's on pickles
How we built it
we used minGPT as a frame and used a dataset of pickle-facts, then configured the temperature and layer's to decrease the training loss further every iteration
Challenges we ran into
re-learning python and HTML there was a learning curve in understanding what exactly mingpt was doing
Accomplishments that we're proud of
we got the trainer to run perfectly within 3 hours of trial and error we made a decent looking user-interface we were able to create a method which understand's general facts about pickles
What we learned
machine learning takes a long time to train re-learning python re-learning HTML and CSS learning PHP on the fly Machine learning algorithms how to convert a python file onto a PHP using pyscript how to use GitHub importing datafiles containing the method to use for our user interface how minGPT's default constructor's affect the training model, we figured out on 4/15 that if we let the default constructor run instead of the overloaded constructor, we can implement a layer,head, and embed
What's next for PickleGPT
better user-interface, more general chatbot, reduced training loss through training and increasing efficiencies on the trainer, removing redundancies
