An application to allow for generating news articles using OpenAI's GPT-2 text generator. The model used for this was further trained on All The News, a dataset of over 200,000 news articles by components.one.

Setup

The repository can be cloned as normal:

git clone https://github.com/DanTm99/gpt2-article-generator.git

The model this program uses is hosted on Google Drive and can be downloaded from here. The contents of this archive should be extracted to the gpt2-article-generator folder so that the checkpoint is in the gpt2-article-generator folder.

Navigate into the folder:

cd gpt2-article-generator

To use this with your GPU you must have and NVIDIA GPU with a CUDA Compute Capability 3.5 or higher.

If you have the required hardware you must install the required software on your system as shown here.

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

To use this without GPU support use the following command instead:

pip3 install -r requirements-no-gpu.txt

python3 ArticleGenerator.py
