THE FUTURE IS HERE

ARTBREEDER – Generative Adversarial Networks

AI generated from Artbreeder.com using their very impressive online GANs which require significant computing power to create. It’s free and amazing how you can make these images. You put some simple images in. They are run through a generative AI that creates a new image. A separate adversarial network looks at that image, grades it according to how likely it looks “real” and adjusts the generative network based based on all the images it has learned (like pictures of teapots). The result is an image created by a computing system that could be nothing you’ve ever seen before but looks convincingly real. It’s not magic, but it’s a step towards something that can “think and imagine” at least a little bit like a real human brain. AI is getting a whole lot crazier fast. Everything is free, but it costs just a few bucks to use their tools to create high resolution images and videos like this one from a series of these images. The real tech is in the underlying GANs that are open source.
