Plug of vaguely related work of mine: http://www.forwardscattering.org/post/42 http://www.forwardscattering.org/post/44 One thing interesting about this kind of automatic/AI-generated art is that it forces us to examine preconceptions about human creativeness. What does art mean when an algorithm can paint or draw as well?
means the same thing it does before. :) we're just not the exclusive authors of it.

Human creativity is related to process and the experience of creating from nothing. The process is more important than the end result.
said no one ever about their favorite record, movie, painting, or book.
I've read through all comments and referred docs, but no one seemed to offer much reason why we'd want machines to draw sketches. An incomplete list: * It's a different way to represent drawings. Alternative to pixels * Perhaps making it easier to render old-school animation at one point? It's a fun rabbit hole though, the many sub-perfect bicycle sketches reminded me to this project, when someone created 3D renders…

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'd imagine that it would be in the same vein as teaching a child to draw; you don't start by teaching them how to draw like Van Gogh. I'd assume that Google is going to up the complexity once their neural network reaches a certain milestone. Imagine 20 years from now and you have a humanistic robot drawing with your child at the kitchen table à la iRobot. It's interesting to think about,…

Hm. So a machine trained exclusively by men/women would make different drawings?

So the Why seems self-evident to me: if you want to understand intelligence, try to make machines do intelligent things.
That's not to say I think that approach will necessarily lead to a system capable of general intelligence. But I'm assuming that is their current approach.
