neural network dinosaurs

We’ve entered a new era where computers are starting to be used to make art. Take this Neural Network created by Chris Rodley, who used A.I. to merge images of dinosaurs with images of flowers. Part of his Deepart.io has been used to creepy effect in the past, but this recent effort is a much more beautiful digital collage of images from a book of flowers, and a book of dinosaurs. The computer algorithms go to work on the images, attempting to preserve recognizable details of the originals, while also replacing imagery. Fascinating early work, but shows promise for some amazing A.I. art in the near future. Via Sploid:
