How can I create a dataset with fake values (preferably automated).

Any specific advice/tools/tips w.r.t to recommendation system (collab filtering - trip planning) or general advice/pointers on automating dataset creation with fake values?

TLDR; Dataset not available - tools/advice/experiences on dealing with this problem?

Keywords of use to you might be “mock data” “mocks” and “mocking”. There are lots of tools, even for generating specific data types (names, emails, json, location coordinates, etc. etc.).
