I follow the sub-Reddit r/oldSchoolCool for a long time now, checking the old photos people are uploading, imagining the stories behind the photos and reading the comments. I was already really amazed by the deep learning latest developments and decided to go deeper into this subject.Īnother unrelated fact, is that I'm a big fan of old photos.

Last weekend I bumped into this website and paper by Richard Zhang, which trained an AI program using deep neural network to receive as input a B&W photo and outputs a colored photo. I really love posts such as how many comments it takes in a discussion until someone reminds Hitler and others. Our first thought was to create a project in the data analysis field. What is a Reddit bot? It is a program which scans posts/comments on Reddit, and can react to the information it collects. One of the old projects on this list was creating a Reddit bot. There's always so little time for our hobbies and the list just getting bigger and bigger.
