But how do the apps that make these images work? How can the style of a painting be transferred to a selfie or a photo of your dog? Turns out, a whole lot of A.I. using machine learning and deep neural networks. In this video, we break down the basics of how style transfer works, and demo some recent style transfer experiments created by research scientists at Google. Curious to know more?
