Artificially Intelligent Painters: can deep learning AI create the next Mona Lisa? - Artificial Intelligence

The content reconstructions from lower layers (a,b,c) are almost exact replicas of the original image. In the higher layers of the network however, the detailed pixel information is lost while the high-level structures and details remain the same (d,e). Then, the style representation draws connections between the different features in different layers of the CNN. This creates images that match the style on an increasing scale as you move through the network's hierarchy.
