Samsung sells an LED TV specifically for this use case. Currently only at 4K. https://www.samsung.com/us/tvs/the-frame/highlights/
Even the “explore technology” link has little extra detail. I don’t even know if it’s backlit.

There's some info on my Hackaday project listing: https://hackaday.io/project/190478-hyepaper Also the album link in the other comment.
You could really gaslight house guests with this. Just deny it's changed.
I suspect people expect everything to be magic now.
That's a very neat project. The only issue I have with it is that it's basically a passive energy waster. It produces images by burning GPU power, when it could instead curate art from an existing amount of art (of which there is more to ever go through, almost in any category). Some projects that use AI could be replaced with other tech and be much more efficient.
At about 300W of GPU + 120W of PC, that is 420W * 0.5hrs = 0.210kWhr. This is a rounding error on my monthly electric bill. About six cents.
I've spent more energy than that likely just sitting and reading HackerNews this week.

I have one of these, and only in a very specific environment is it convincing as not-a-TV (aside from the concerns of privacy and their proprietary app). Especially at night, I find the backlight makes it painfully obvious that it's just a TV and I'd much rather have something like e-ink which blends into the surroundings.

Do you think people are fooled by any tech these days? I suspect people expect everything to be magic now.
Look to what hobbyists are hacking to find commercial opportunity.
Awesome project! I'd strongly recommend swapping in some antireflective glass. There's a couple affordable options with less than 1% reflection [1][2]. Made a huge difference vs. stock acrylic on my frames that get lots of environmental light.

I would love two wall mounted e-ink displays showing chess boards so my 14 year old son could play chess with his grandfather. I imagine the game keeping track of whose turn it is and being able to give voice commands to make moves. Then they could play games over a longer period of time, maybe make one move per day.
the Lilygo T5 with Touch screen + a lipo battery would have all the hardware you need
just need to port chess to the platform after that https://www.hackster.io/Sergey_Urusov/arduino-mega-chess-d54...
figuring out NAT traversal to get them talking to each other from each other's homes might be tricky/fun, but there may be ways around that...
AI art is not generative art, it is reductive "art". It requires samples of the art style you wish to cop, and it always produces something artificial and less than the sum of its parts.
On the other hand, generative art is procedural, and represents the thought process of a human being.
Better luck making meaning.
