These 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.

So far my favorite that I've made (after 5 minutes of playing) is agaric + wool: https://ganbreeder.app/i?k=9dd484c5e310c710bf9a3502

Or maybe agaric + wool + fire engine: https://ganbreeder.app/i?k=769d91c5be811bc780b7d326

No, wait, honeycomb + water tower: https://ganbreeder.app/i?k=769d91c5be811bc780b7d326

Aaaah I love them all this is great

That looks like a fun toy! I'll have to play with it over the weekend.
