Google's new AI creates personalized poem-selfies
Called PoemPortrait, the online collective artwork is a combination of poetry, design, and machine learning.
Google has built a new AI that uses your selfie and combines it with your choice of words to create your unique portrait, overlaid with poetry.
Called PoemPortrait, the online collective artwork is a combination of poetry, design, and machine learning. As Google explained in its blog, starting today, you can create your own custom portrait with poetry.
To create original selfie-poem artwork, users have to donate a word on the official page and take a selfie. Each word is then expanded into original lines of poetry by an algorithm that has been trained using nineteenth-century poetry.
The AI then provides a unique PoemPortrait of the face, illuminated by the original lines of poetry. All the lines are then combined to form an ever-evolving, collective poem.
