I am blown away by VQGAN+CLIP, a pair of neural network architectures that can be used to generate images from text. When I wrote my previous post on “A game of AI telephone“, it was not clear to me yet how exciting this technology actually is. Or rather, I had not used the right text… Continue reading Image generation with VQGAN + CLIP

A game of (AI) telephone
Do you remember playing a game called “telephone” (or “Chinese Whispers”) as a kid? The game is simple: The first player comes up with a short sentence like “Alice and Bob walked to the bakery”. They then whisper this sentence to the second player, who then whispers to the third player etc. The fun part… Continue reading A game of (AI) telephone
Generating cartoon avatars with GANs
You might have heard of Deepfakes, which are images or videos where someone’s face is replaced by another person’s face. There are various techniques for creating Deepfakes, one of them being Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). A GAN is a type of neural network that can generate realistic data from random input data. When used for… Continue reading Generating cartoon avatars with GANs
