creAIted, a Russian startup, released an EP with four songs entirely written by a neural network that resemble the lyrics of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain. The startup who is also a member of the NVIDIA Inception program is focused on projects to show the creative potential of AI, and the possibilities of AI and human
Researchers from Lehigh University in Pennsylvania developed a diagnostic technique that combines deep learning and cutting-edge imaging technology to detect in real-time the difference between cancerous and benign cells with over 90% accuracy. “The idea is that one day, if this technique could be used during surgery, it could complement the histopathology, potentially reducing the
Artist and researcher Branislav Ulicny (“AlteredQualia”) developed an online demo that combines two different deep learning-based projects into spooky cursor-tracking faces. The first is a hobby project by Mike Tyka, who works on machine learning at Google, makes use of GANs to generate realistic new faces. Using a TITAN X GPU, Tyke trained his generative
