Demo: gathering data from site and sample output from template

Next steps: construct templates. How to combine templates? What would you train? How to use sentence structure data? How to generate new examples instead of just use classify them?

Switched over from generating updates from games in real-time to focus on aggregating data and relating plays to overall stats.

Effort: More NLP, less technical.

Reading:

• Generating Sentences from a Continuous Space
• Principles of Cognitive Computing

Problems:

• Templates seem to be the best option for relating data. The English language is taught through grammatical templates in order to make sense of words, but language becomes more flexible the more it is understood. Sentence diversity seems to direct to providing more templates.
• Thinking about having program generate sentences from a list of grammatical "don'ts", rather than "do's". Learning from negatives seems easier and more accommodating to the flexibility of sentence structure.
