Google's Ai Has Learned How To Draw By Looking At Your Doodles

Remember last year when Google released an AI-powered web tool that played Pictionary with your doodles? Those doodles you drew have now been used to teach Google's AI how to draw. The resulting program is called Sketch-RNN and, frankly, it draws about as well as a toddler. But like any new parents, Google's AI scientists are proud as punch. To create Sketch-RNN, Google Brain researchers David Ha and Douglas Eck collected more than half a million user-drawn sketches from the Google tool Quick, Draw!
