Yeah, that would have been more interesting. This is technically a meow generator generator.

The neural network is starting from noise, but that's not the only input, it was trained on [0] and I think it's arguable that the NN is "reproducing" the images from its training dataset in some sense. [0] https://web.archive.org/web/20150703060412/http://137.189.35...
I think it's a very interesting question, of how can we measure when a neural network is being creative? In fact, creativity is not obvious at all. It's sort of an ill-posed question if you think about it. How can you verify that a network is generating things that are not like what it was trained on, yet are... like what it was trained on? Are neural networks* forever relegated to the role of copying and interpolati…
And likewise, how do you know when a human is being creative? Isn't all art derivative of our training and influences? I believe something like that was an argument by one of the random paint splatter artists: that randomness was the only thing truly creative.

not meows, but here are some purrs: https://purrli.com/

#34Change the title? Seems like I wasn't the only one expecting some sort of audio-related thing.
Alright, we've updated the title from “Meow Generator”.

OP's post was amazing but can someone explain how this was probably made?
I think the sound is generated locally. Check out the page source, which contains the JS I think is responsible for generation (I haven't checked in detail).

Pollock?

#38Read that as "Generating the feces of cats.." which would have been altogether more interesting a problem.

If it's meows you want, have I got the album for you!

#40These things are always low resolution. At some point I'd like to see the state of the art move into more realistic (say ~500x500) dimensions.
