Here are the monstrosities that I brought to this world

 

This was pretty fun, I just wish I had something other than my trackpad to draw more advanced stuff.

While using this tool, I had fun trying to come up with cute or wacky designs of cats, shoes, or buildings. However, the outcomes were not as satisfying for me. This was especially apparent in the edges2cats tool because the AI was misinterpreting certain aspects of my drawings since they were not standard to cats. For instance, my super large eyes cat has some fur in his eyes, which was not ideal, and my toothy cat doesn’t have as much personality as he was intended to. Although there are limitations to these tools, its very impressive that the AI is able to detect features from drawings, but I think that there are some issues with drawings that have more animated or cartoony features.

I found the tool very user-friendly and encouraged me to experiment with and challenge the program to create random objects that have nothing to do with the objects they have been trained to identify.
