    This kind of reminds me of older deep dream style images.

    I miss those and the VQGAN images. I wonder if there’s a way to run those original old models and algorithms on newer hardware, faster. I feel like they were more interesting to probe around to see how the model works.

    Not that the new stuff can’t be interesting to play with, it’s just that the older ones felt more like toys and less consequential.

      I had the same thought. I really liked seeing psychedelic horrors produced before things got as refined as today.
