I clicked on the post expecting an article or a Github repo, but I was surprised to find a cat.

#62... and thank God it doesn't. Just look at this poor fella! https://imgur.com/a/IBudXk6
Did it automatically generate that "caption" because it learns from lolcats/cat memes? Fascinating!
I also got a few characters of would-be-text into a couple of images. As you said, the net was probably trained with images that included cat memes and it "learned" that meme-text means "cat".
Re: This Cat Does Not Exist
#63Looks like there were some memes with watermarks in the training data https://i.imgur.com/iMOSUog.jpg
That's a caption, not a watermark. This one has a watermark, and was clearly taken from that popular vendor of stock images, shuttersrstsck:

#65I think this might be a well-done satire showcasing the pitfalls of having insufficient training data. It's magnificent. Half the cats are adorable and half are, I believe, creatures from "The Thing".
They look like Star Trek transporter accidents.

#66Cute idea, but about half of these have given me very weird/unrealistic results. For instance this[1] one which, while amusing as hell, isn't exactly convincing. https://i.imgur.com/g5bHmH6.png
Interesting. I looked at about 20 of these and only saw 3 that didn't look like cats. I guess I got lucky! Now to hit refresh some more times to find some weird and wonderful mutant cats.

#67Earlier quoted context omitted.
Might be that humans are not very good at recognizing differences between cats.
It would be interesting to see how realistic a cat thinks these are, maybe by measuring brain activity or reactions. It's possible that a cat may not be fooled by cats we think look real, or perhaps more interestingly, that a cat is fooled by a not particularly good image. Common cuckoos lay their eggs in other birds' nests. The chicks don't necessarily look much like the host species to the human eye, but they can f…
Starting a lab soon to investigate this. Brb, I'm going to gather feral cats.

Do you really want to gather the training data for this one?
