In this article, I'll try and demystify text generation via neural networks by explaining how the technology works in very basic terms. Hopefully though, my explanation will be complete enough to give the reader an understanding that's good enough to critically examine the hype around text generators and correct some misunderstandings I've seen around me. There's also some terminology in there that will probably…
