This AI Turns Celebrities into Incredible Cartoon Characters - Nerdist

#artificialintelligence 

Doron Adler and Justin Pinkney, two software engineers, recently released a "Toonification translation" AI model that turns real faces into flawless cartoon representations. And while the toonification tool, "Toonify," was originally available to the public, it became too popular to sustain cheaply. But some people managed to Toonify a ton of celebrities before the tool was pulled, and all the animations are stellar. After much training of neural networks @Norod78 and I have put together a website where anyone can #toonify themselves using deep learning!https://t.co/OQ23p30isC In a series of blog posts, which come via Gizmodo, Pinkney outlines how he and Adler created Toonify.
