Digitizing Camp: Training A Gpt-2 On "The Rocky Horror Picture Show", Sarah Groustra Oct 2021

Digitizing Camp: Training A Gpt-2 On "The Rocky Horror Picture Show", Sarah Groustra

IPHS 300: AI for Humanity

“A sensibility (as distinct from an idea) is one of the hardest things to talk about; but there are special reasons why Camp, in particular, has never been discussed. It is not a natural mode of sensibility, if there be any such. Indeed the essence of Camp is its love of the unnatural: of artifice and exaggeration.” –Susan Sontag, Notes on Camp (1964) Sontag, whose essay was (and continues to be) revolutionary, would perhaps blanche at the way the word “camp” has entered the wide vernacular of common slang. In her writing, she defines Camp as something ephemeral and whimsical, …


Using Rl To Predict Crypto And The Effect Of Covid-19, Anav Dutt Oct 2021

Using Rl To Predict Crypto And The Effect Of Covid-19, Anav Dutt

IPHS 300: AI for Humanity

The stock market has always been subject to speculation. Oftentimes it is volatile but it is still an important mode of investment for many people. It carries great weight and is reflective of the performance of an economy. In macroeconomic courses in college, students are taught that in times of crises, CASH is KING, not assets in the market. Naturally, one would assume the COVID-19 pandemic would cause people to flock to holding monetary assets in cash. However, recently, as a result of the pandemic there has been a rise in the demand for cryptocurrencies. This might be because people …


Fine-Tuning Daria: Exploring The Implications Of Temperature, Epochs, & Corpus Size On Gpt-2 Screenplay Generation, Rebecca Lawson Oct 2021

Fine-Tuning Daria: Exploring The Implications Of Temperature, Epochs, & Corpus Size On Gpt-2 Screenplay Generation, Rebecca Lawson

IPHS 300: AI for Humanity

GPT-2 has a number of hyper parameters that can be tuned to adjust the generated text, including temperature, number of epochs, size of the training text corpus, batch size, and number of samples generated. Since GPT-2 is a new AI model, the effects of fine-tuning are still relatively unknown and unexplored. This paper summits experiments adjusting these GPT-2 parameters and how they affect the text output that the model generates.

Gpt-2 Journalism: Can Ai Produce Mike Royko’S Writing?, Teddy Kamin

IPHS 300: AI for Humanity

To begin, newspapers are vital for the Fourth Estate which means that newspapers are the check to the checks and balances of government. The past decade has not been a very good time for newspapers, as they have been caught in the digital revolution. More and more newspapers are shutting down because of online competition, drop in ad revenue, declining circulation among young readers, and the hunger for the fastest news, 24/7. Newspapers and their effect on society are indispensable. Newspapers, staffed by hard-working, truth-seeking reporters who aren’t afraid of doing whatever it takes to bring justice, earned the title …

Art Imitates Life: The Representation (Or Lack Thereof) Of Black Women In Video Games, Bug Gadson Oct 2021

Art Imitates Life: The Representation (Or Lack Thereof) Of Black Women In Video Games, Bug Gadson

Faculty Curated Undergraduate Works

The key focus of this essay is to compare the representation of black women in media, primarily in television and film, to the representation of black female characters in video games. Using black feminist theory, this essay illustrates the treatment of black female characters in gaming. The particular and deliberate methods of writing black female characters in video games are used to highlight white video game characters and their narratives, instead of giving life and dimension to the black female characters themselves. The hostile and unsafe environments in gaming spaces are cultivated through upholding these harmful stereotypes of black women, …

Learning About Metadata And Machines: Teaching Students Using A Novel Structured Database Activity, Andrew Iliadis, Tony Liao, Isabel Pedersen, Jing Han Sep 2021

Learning About Metadata And Machines: Teaching Students Using A Novel Structured Database Activity, Andrew Iliadis, Tony Liao, Isabel Pedersen, Jing Han

Journal of Communication Pedagogy

Machines produce and operate using complex systems of metadata that need to be catalogued, sorted, and processed. Many students lack the experience with metadata and sufficient knowledge about it to understand it as part of their data literacy skills. This paper describes an educational and interactive database activity designed for teaching undergraduate communication students about the creation, value, and logic of structured data. Through a set of virtual instructional videos and interactive visualizations, the paper describes how students can gain experience with structured data and apply that knowledge to successfully find, curate, and classify a digital archive of media artifacts. …


The Power Of Voice: Using Audio Podcasts To Teach Vocal Performance And Digital Communication, Amanda Hill Sep 2021

The Power Of Voice: Using Audio Podcasts To Teach Vocal Performance And Digital Communication, Amanda Hill

Journal of Communication Pedagogy

Today’s students often speak through mediated technologies. Thus, understanding how nonverbal cues impact meaning-making is key to understanding effective communication across mediums. This case study explores a group project where students created audio podcasts to teach others about a specific aspect of communication studies while considering the way sound and vocal performance affect the transference of the message. This article examines the use of audio podcasts as a vehicle for teaching university students about the power of paralinguistic and chronemic nonverbal behaviors.
