Art: Google launches Pet Portraits feature that shows you which famous painting your pet resembles

Does your pooch look like a Picasso or your gerbil a Gauguin? Well, you can find out thanks to a Google feature that reveals which famous artwork your pet resembles. Part of the Google Arts & Culture app, Pet Portraits uses machine learning algorithms to scan a photo of your pet and find the best matches from hundreds of years of art. The system works with various animals including cats, dogs birds, fish, horses, rabbits and reptiles, and is available on Android and iOS. It builds upon the success of Art Selfie, a similar feature launched in 2018 that let us humans find our eerie doppelgängers from the world of fine art.
