corviThese images were generated by combining images output by the BigGAN artificial intelligences, using the ganbreeder website. BigGAN is a program that can generate images in various categories; ganbreeder lets you combine categories. The AI is particularly good at combining mechanical and organic forms, but mostly in a really unsettling way.
It's a lot of fun, and I wish I had any use for slightly creepy, dreamlike, machine generated images, like if I was writing a mildly unsettling RPG that needed some illustrations, or a book of poetry about being trapped between the walls of the world, down where the gears are.
THE MAP
This is axolotl (a lizard with feathery gills) + European gallinule (a bird) + necklace + padlock + steel arch bridge.
THE LOCK
This is padlock + steel arch bridge.
THE KEY
Hoo boy. This one is albatross + lionfish + coral fungus + monarch butterfly + necklace.
THE BLADE
Swan + french horn + scabbard
THE GUARDIAN
Clock + catamaran + kimono
THE CUP
Goldfish + clock + cup
Here are other people's creations, some of which are really incredible. Like this one.

I also enjoyed this variation, which looks like a friendly yarn amanita armadillo. https://ganbreeder.app/i?k=713983e9939f0928029942d7
