Google DeepDream-esque app -

[DangerousGas]

I couldn't find anything posted on here about this, so I thought I should share.

For those of you that don't know, Google's DeepDream system is the image-recognition AI that they're working on, based on taught neural networks. As such, it specialises in recognising what it's been taught, although it could (if it were human) be called monomaniacal: it sees everything within the context of what it's been taught. Give it something it doesn't understand the shape of, and shit gets weird, fast.

Anyway - someone's gone and released a web app that gives a decent approximation of what DeepDream does to images that it's been fed yet failed to understand.

Behold:

The app can be found here, and the filter that produces the most worthwhile results is the 'trippy' one.

I like the fact the actual medallion turns into a fox or racoon.

To be honest, I'm not seeing much of a difference.

Why does it turn everyone into dogs? It looks less disgusting than Nick Bate. In fact, I didn't even recognize it as Nick for a few seconds.

Here's another.

It's better to run the image through multiple processes. It gets a better result.

Iconic moments of the 20th Century. Somehow, I don't think these people knew that their descendants would make trippy as fuck pictures with them for lols.

It turns everything into dogs because Google's neural network AI bot thing has been trained to recognize dogs. A more scientific and less drunken explanation can be found here. https://www.reddit.com/r/deepdream/comments/3cawxb/what_are_deepdream_images_how_do_i_make_my_own/

I put an album cover through the Trippy filter about 10 times. The botanical dimensions filter is neat too IMO.

So that's what happens when you put a Shoggoth in Tienanmen Square.

Edit: Threw my current Opa-Opa avatar through it a few times, shit got weird quickly and it only took four times to make a decent image.

The hills have eyes...literally.

Spoiler: Pixyteri

Used the Botanical Dimensions on Pixyteri and the above image was the result. The face itself looks a bit like a deformed dog.
