Random generation of anime characters by sophisticated AI programs is now so good, it's unreal

Never would we have thought that characters designed by AI programs jumped from rudimentary to ultra-advanced in the space of three years. In 2015, an artificial intelligence program called Chainer was introduced to the world, which generated anime characters based on users' inputs and helped artists come up with their own ideas. It was relatively basic and created content that looked like it was haphazardly drawn. Nevertheless, it was a first attempt to design an AI that could create anime characters. But it became the stepping stone for a more sophisticated program featured on a website called MakeGirls.moe in 2017.
