Make an AI sound like a YouTuber (LAB): Crash Course AI #8

Let’s try to help John Green Bot sound a bit more like the real John Green using Natural Language Processing. Today, we’re going to code a program that takes a one-word prompt and then completes the sentence that sounds like something John Green would say. To do this we’re going to collect transcription files from Vlogbrothers episodes, do some preprocessing since John Green has a pretty large vocabulary, then we’ll set up a recurrent neural network (or RNN), train our model, and test it!
