Programmer + game developer + ??? image enjoyer

Sometimes I code stuff with old crappy AI (BigGAN, from 2018) - am not an AI bro or prompter
Made of various BigGAN outputs but also StyleGAN2 - it's the model behind thispersondoesnotexist.com but i messed it up again to get some freakish faces
(this where my profile pic comes from too)

These images are BigGAN outputs, except I modified it to be garbage and abstract + tileable.

FWIW, BigGAN was created in 2018, and was trained on ImageNet - basically 1 million stock photos - and imho is from the era before AI images became problematic (e.g. there's no scraped art in ImageNet).

I don't normally do stuff like this, and the process was really weird. Basically a collage of a few weird textures which I edited and stuck together. Ingredients:

I would certainly bathe with this fine gentleman

Agree... can be helpful for custom textures! Kinda tricky to get 2D assets which aren't garbage though (transparency issues + no animation), and 3D is pretty low quality, but both of these are improving...

just wish there were modern open-source models with more ethical training data :(
