AI artist conjures up convincing fake worlds from memories

Take a look at the above image of a German street. At a glance it could be a blurry dashcam photo, or a snap that's gone through one of those apps that turns photos into paintings. But you won't find this street anywhere on Google Maps. That's because it was generated by an imaginative AI, stitching together its memories of real streets it was trained on. Nothing in the image actually exists, says Qifeng Chen at Stanford University, California, and Intel.
