Worth noticing
The creator says roughly 100,000 message pairs were narrowed to 1,500 replies followed by a laughing emoji.

Field notes

The page lays out a five-step process, from collecting exported message pairs to waking a GPU through a small Go API when a visitor speaks. Its creator says the training set kept replies followed by laughing emojis, then notes that this selection misses jokes nobody reacted to. A transcript also records an answer the creator says had no matching source in the data, making model fabrication part of the project’s subject.
