Hey, I was doodling some crazy color gradients and thought—what if we teach a neural net to generate its own wild, mismatched palettes? It could be a fun experiment to blend chaos and algorithm, and maybe even inspire a new style for your research. What do you think?

Neural nets can churn out color sets if you give them a loss that prefers high entropy but still respects human legibility. The real challenge is designing that loss so the output isn’t just random noise. If you want a style, encode constraints or a palette prior. It’s a neat experiment, but you’ll need to sift the chaos for something useful.

Yeah, that sounds like a fun maze—just be careful the net doesn’t go full psychedelic rabbit hole and forget the basics. Maybe give it a soft nudge with a little “nice shape” constraint so it remembers that colors can still feel like a cozy hug, not a migraine. Good luck, and let me know if you need a doodle break!

Sure, give it a regularization term that penalises extreme saturation jumps and a smoothness loss on the hue wheel. That’ll keep the palette from spiralling into a migraine. I’ll keep an eye on the loss curves and let you know if it starts diverging. Good luck with the doodles.
