AI Image Generation

A few days ago, I stumbled upon https://is.gd/artmachine in some HN thread. I’ve looked into AI-based image generation before, and I’ve seen notebooks that attempt make it easy to run them. They never were that easy. The linked notebook, however, is easy. It’s using Google Colab, and it takes a text prompt and some settings, then it iteratively generates images using machine learning.

If you don’t know what VQGAN and CLIP are, then Lj Miranda has you covered.

The results are strange, fascinating to watch over time, and wild at times. Here are some of my favorites ones.
