New technological features recognise names and summarize long paragraphs Artificial Intelligence (AI) is taking the fast route to modernise society. But how about looking back at some past delights like poetry through AI? Researchers are up to the stage where they want to…
Most of us in data science have seen a lot of AI-generated people in recent times, whether it be in papers, blogs, or videos. We’ve reached a stage where it’s becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish between actual human faces and faces generated by…
Seika, a town located in the southern part of the Kyoto Prefecture, has a mascot anime girl character named Seika Kyomachi. The mascot is notable for employing various technological innovations in her mission to spread information about the town; she became a…
One cannot, in all their seriousness, comprehend what went into writing the “Requiem for a dream” or painting the frescoes on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. Art is a consequence; of intelligence and experience. But, what happens when this intelligence is augmented with…
Researchers Ghose and Prevost created a deep learning algorithm which, given a silent video, can generate a realistic sounding synchronized soundtrack. Frequently, movies had added sound effects which were not recorded during after the recording to make it feel more realistic in…
Christie’s made the headlines in 2018 when it became the first auction house to sell a painting created by AI. The painting, named Portrait of Edmond de Belamy, ended up selling for a cool $432,500, but more importantly, it demonstrated how intelligent machines…
The first ever AI-assisted casting process has determined Henry Cavill should be the next James Bond. Daniel Craig has played the iconic spy since 2006’s Casino Royale and has since put in five performances in total. His final outing as 007, No Time to Die, was…
Let’s say for the sake of argument you’re stuck at home for a long time watching too much of the stuff we euphemistically call “streaming content,” by which I mean movies and TV. Come up with your own reason — anything from…

Horses don’t normally wear hats, and deep generative models, or GANs, don’t normally follow rules laid out by human programmers. But a new tool developed at MIT lets anyone go into a GAN and tell the model, like a coder, to put…
