TL;DR--an automatic xkcd recommendation bot. [1] "Relevant xkcd" is a meme that's been a part of online communities for as long as the comic has had online notoriety. [2] I wanted to build a bot to see how true that was. I've got a lot of the hard parts completed (data collection / curation, initial models), sitting in my TODO box for quite some time and would love to pair up with a collaborator to get it across the finish line. The idea is an automatic xkcd recommendation bot that takes advantage of the latest and greatest in NLP advances (a fine-tuned hugging face model). [3] I've already got the training data (reddit comments that mention "relevant xkcd") and each individual xkcd's notes from the xkcd wiki. [4, 5] Feel free to reach out to me via email (in my bio).
