Neural Networks are cool

Inspired by this tweet, I have decided that this weekend I will play around with recurrent neural networks.

I have a vague sense of what a neural network, and no idea what a recurrent one is.

But I will learn, because if you can get a computer to create a script for Friends maybe I can have a computer make a script for a show that I actually enjoy (yeah, not too much of a fan).

It got me thinking: What else would interesting for a computer to produce?

Stock Data? I bet it has been done before, but why not.

NBA Stats? Feed it MVP's stat-lines and have it predict the next one. Do the same for teams and other awards.

News Articles? Feed it articles along with a summary and watch as the summaries become better.

Traffic Data? Try to predict where an accident and/or traffic jam will occur.

Yeah, I know what I am doing this weekend.
