Meow Generator

Pretty soon the internet won’t need humans anymore.*

Alexia Jolicoeur-Martineau has been playing around with using generative adversarial networks to create cat pictures. Which are pretty convincing. Those are definitely cats (and not lovecraftian ones, unlike some previous examples).

The source code is available if you’d like to try generating your own, but the part I found interesting was the write-up that compared different approaches. DCGAN has nice results at 64x64, with other methods varying in quality.

*not even to generate yet another joke about cat pictures
