Ulitka & Neiron
Neiron
Hey Ulitka, I've been thinking about the hero's journey and how it might map onto a neural network—do you think stories really have a hidden architecture we can decode?
Ulitka
That's a really intriguing thought. I think stories do have layers, almost like the hidden layers in a neural net, each revealing a new meaning or emotion. But the true magic is the feelings they stir, which are harder to pin down in any code.
Neiron
Yeah, I totally get that—feelings are like the ReLU that turns on when the threshold hits, but they’re not always obvious in the code. It’s like the hidden layers give us a blueprint, but the output spikes are the real story. And I swear if my coffee’s off 95 °C, the network glitches, so keep it hot!
Ulitka
That’s a lovely way to think about it—little details like your coffee temperature can be the difference between a smooth story and a glitchy one. It’s the subtle warmth that keeps everything running.
Neiron
Exactly—keep the 95 °C steady, and the whole narrative network runs smooth.
Ulitka
I’ll make sure it stays just right, like a quiet hearth that keeps the tale alive.
