So I guess I'm not alone wanting to do an app like this after seeing deepart.io. Kudos to Pikazo for getting it out there. I'm sure it will be a huge hit.

#12Created by the image scientist behind landmark visuals seen in Myst, The Matrix, 300, and Second Life... I wonder who it is. The press-kit linked on the website just says "Developer: qarl".
Seems easily googlable: http://www.qarl.com/menu/info/
Re: Pikazo
#13I wonder if this could be the beginning of many artists being replaced by AI.
I would say in that case that the art is the AI itself (or its code), because it is what efforts and research have been put into. And thus the artist would still be human: (s)/he is the one who created the AI.

There's also https://dreamscopeapp.com/ which is on App Store for at least 3 months (may be more, I am not sure)

I don't think so, but I think it's definitely getting us closer to the first artist who really isn't - creates art deep AI way and paints a copy of it.

#17Is this done with the deep learning research that was published here a couple of months ago?
for all who don't know about the submission months ago. http://www.deepart.io/ https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10511572
And now at http://deepart.io/ we have hi-resolution and the authors of the algorithm on-board. Thanks for mentioning us :)

Karl Stiefvater is a graphics programmer who's been involved in, among other things, Riven (Myst's sequel) and The Matrix. He's been playing with the neural algorithm of artistic style on his blog recently (e.g. [0]). In 2015 he also started a YouTube series, "The Joy of Programming"[1], although as far as I can tell only two episodes have been released.

Two more examples:
I've been slowly coming back to this app for weeks. It works well combining a photo with a clear focus, and a patterned one.
A few weeks ago, they dropped the resolution of the photos. After seeing a preview of what a smaller resolution one looks like, I'd be happy paying extra for a large-sized one.

Depends on your definition of 'artist'. This doesn't create any original work, it just remixes a photo into a style. When the subject matter is more than a source image and the output more than a digital visualisation through an algorithm, then the answer is 'no'.
