Facebook Manages to Squeeze an AI Into Its Mobile App

Hussein Mehanna is showing off a new incarnation of the Facebook smartphone app. It can transform a photo of your backyard barbecue into a Picasso. The app includes a particularly extravagant photo filter. You select a work of art--something akin to, say, a 1907 Picasso--and it creates a Cubist incarnation of your backyard barbecue. It's fun, and it works even with live video. Turn the camera on yourself, and you too can be a Picasso.
