r/deeplearning - Conversational AI Learning Enginge? Anything Like this out there?

I have tried both fine tuning a GPT-2 transformer on my own chats as well a number of academic conversation datasets and further using a GAN on the output embedding space. If you are doing this for fun, than it can be interesting and sometimes hilarious. But the overall technology is not ready for commercial applications as it lacks even basic common sense and general intelligence. It doesn't have a persistent world model so it fails quite quickly in real world applications. For example, it learned my favorite restaurant served burgers, but didn't know burgers are food. It basically outputs believable conversation that is completely disconnected from reality.
