Yes something like this: http://www.whichfaceisreal.com/

Wow. I have no idea which face is real.

You can pretty reliably guess correctly if you look for ghosting/blurring/chromatic aberration along sharp edges, e.g. around the eyes, on the chin, and in hair. ML hasn't quite mastered the fine details yet

Cute 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

Fun fact, the toroidal cat is actually a stable gravitational configuration along with a spheroid. There are upper and lower bounds on angular momentum and mass of course, but within those bounds you can have a toroidal cat orbiting its primary! Wait, what’s a cat again?

Complete tangent, but I’ve always wanted to ask someone else who thinks about toroidal gravitational physics: in the center of a toroidal cat (planet) of sufficient mass, does gravity “cancel out”, or are you instead being “pulled apart” in every direction at once, as if on a medieval rack?

... 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!

This reminds me of the movie Annihilation, it’s like it’s blindly mimicking something without knowing what it’s doing.

So weird!

I 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.

That could mean a lot of things. Are you saying that they look dead, fused with another cat, drastically younger, attacked by an interdimensional monster, cloned or are the evil alternate reality version of themselves?
