Inceptionism: Going Deeper into Neural Networks

[NVP]

Like most of you I have seen the below image on the Internet for many years yet I never knew how/why it was created.

I'm not sure why this gif isn't working, here's a direct link: https://imgur.com/a/oUTfkkA

I was linked the following regarding this type of image and found it an absolutely fascinating read.

Hope someone else enjoys it too.

I recommend a read if you are intrigued by the image, or AI / neural networks in general.

It's from 2016 isn't it?

Yes, I think so. I had no idea it was the result of a neural network which is why I am now posting this thread 3 years late haha

Having said that, I'd buy a print of any of these for the office wall

Too true, didn't looks so close before but on second look these are more fascinating than half the crap I've seen in galaries. Modern art?...wait!

@dowie Wow... Unexpected price tag! And made me really sad, poor kid. Is he taking them to court at all considering they went against his wishes, or is he screwed because open source?

 

[NVP]

LOL, no.

Haha never? Maybe it just hasn't made its way that far south yet, it's only got small legs/wheels/wings...

Sweet, where's that code saved again...

You're a star. See you plebs later, I'll be moving to Rees Mogg levels of wealth and superiority very shortly.

...Do they let brown people in?

I feel hyphenation is warranted to complete the status upgrade also.
