Guys
There is no neural network. The bot is meant as a joke. If you came here expecting to post a correction, you've just been bamboozled.

Actually, the bot is a basic feed-forward Neural Network with a couple hundred hidden nodes that uses the sigmoid activation function. It's nothing groundbreaking, mind you, and I only trained it on ten or twenty thousand iterations, but it's accurate enough to be fairly amusing in correcting people.
That being said, you're probably right that people who post corrections have been "bamboozled" since I'm not really actively updating it. I more just find it interesting to see where the bot struggles.
Awesome. I was wondering if I would get called out for my BS.

That is absolutely fascinating. Thanks for sharing! It really puts my bot to shame, and the user's edit history is almost flawless. As someone who is still learning, this stuff is really inspirational.
Wait, so is this like a double bamboozle?
