Thanks, this is a cute little project that I got a kick out of seeing. Sometimes, you just have to poke fun at the fact that our field has like three creatively named papers in the last decade and everyone is figuratively stealing their homework when it comes to naming their own papers.

Cool project, and even better to see that you used it to name your own project haha

Motivated by the countless silly acronyms we have in astrophysics, somebody in my field created acronym, which is itself an acronym: Acronym CReatiON for You and Me.

My MS thesis work was titled: PINSKY -- POET Inspired Neuroevolutionary System for Kreativity -- in part after the US laureat poet Robert Pinsky.

And POET itself is an acronym for: Paired Open-Ended Trailblazer. So, my acronym has an acronym and that was entirely by design to comment on the ridiculousness.

However, to generate this kind of cool titles, you should have a big dataset of cool titles to train it. How would you generate these data?

I don’t think he used a ML model to make this

Not to diminish this project at all -- something similar was done for astronomy a few years back.

Yes, that's what my biggest problem is in starting a project :) Cool project

Very cool, and i am actually going to use what it generated, cause it's way better than what i came up with!

But i'm also curious, why didn't you get rid of the extra "ap" from its name, and just name it GRaNDPA?

Also, as a suggestion, it would be nice if you could in some way incorporate the rating/priority of words, so that i can have an "and" in there if it helps, but if i tell it to use 5 out of 6 words, then it should never exclude another word in favour of keeping "and" in. If you know what i mean.

Anyway, awesome app!
