OpenYourMind is a Word plugin that can generate paragraphs of text based on a few words or sentences you write. It is intended to help stimulate your creativity by generating content that is both coherent and context-aware to what you write. Microsoft recently went into a $1B deal with OpenAI, and we're using OpenAI's GPT-2 language model to do this.

More about GPT-2 and some of the content it generates from here (it's both scary and fascinating): https://openai.com/blog/better-language-models/.

Our hackathon project is detailed here: https://garagehackbox.azurewebsites.net/hackathons/1857/projects/82703.

• Python 3.6 or above

1. Create virtual environment (best practice)

git clone https://github.com/openai/gpt-2.git

cd gpt-2/

python3 -m venv ~/venv-gpt-2

. ~/venv-gpt-2/bin/activate

2. Install Tensorflow and additional requirements

pip3 install tensorflow==1.12

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

python3 download_model.py 117M

python3 download_model.py 345M

1. Navigate to oym_plugin/ folder, and run npm install to install the tools and libraries listed in the package.json file.
2. Install self-signed ceritificate found in the oym_plugin/certs folder. Instructions can be found here.
3. Run npm run build to transpile your ES6 source code to an earlier version of JavaScript that is supported by all the hosts where Office Add-ins can run.
4. Run the command npm start to start a web server running on localhost.
5. In a separate Terminal, navigate to root of this project, and run python3 app.py to start the Flask server.
6. Create a new Word document online or locally, and sideload the Word plugin by using one of the methods offered in the tutorial.
7. Write some sentences on the document, and click on the 'Ignite My Creativity' button on the plugin to generate text using GPT-2.
