[P] OpenAI's GPT-2-based Reddit Bot is Live!

**~~FINAL~~** **UPDATE: The bot is down until I have time to get it operational again. Will update this when it’s back online.**

​

**Disclaimer** : This is not the full model. This is the smaller and less powerful version which OpenAI released publicly.

Based on the popularity of my post from the other day, I decided to go ahead an build a full-fledged Reddit bot. So without further ado, please welcome:

# u/GPT-2_Bot

​

If you want to use the bot, all you have to do is reply to any comment with the following command words:

# "gpt-2 finish this"

Your reply can contain other stuff as well, i.e.

>"hey **gpt-2**, please **finish this** argument for me, will ya?"

​

The bot will then look at **the comment you replied to** and generate its own response. It will tag you in the response so you know when it's done!

​

Currently supported subreddits:

* r/funny * r/AskReddit * r/gaming * r/pics * r/science * r/worldnews * r/todayilearned * r/movies * r/videos * r/ShowerThoughts * r/MachineLearning * r/test * r/youtubehaiku * r/thanosdidnothingwrong * r/dankmemes

​

The bot also scans r/all so ***theoretically*** it will see comments posted anywhere on Reddit. In practice, however, it only seems to catch about 1 in 5 of them.

​

Enjoy! :) Feel free to PM me with feedback
