This Machine Learning art turned into freelance work and teaching. Tools used to create those images are StyleGAN, Google CoLab, Google Drive, After effects, RunwayML, Photoshop.
For the first step, I used StyleGAN with a twist. Instead of a big and similar data set usually used, I went for a small, diverse set of images and trained it for a fairly short time. This exploration opened doors to new variations in color and form.
Next I used the results of my earlier experiments in order to feed them back and train a new model with a more advanced technology using RunwayML.
Finally, I utilized a text-to-image tool to generate images in the style of my newly trained dataset. This enabled me to create for example, a "Shanghai Skyline" image in the unique AbstractbyAI aesthetic.
What began as personal exploration has evolved into freelance gigs, along with teaching on the side. But overall, it's mainly a passion project, a safe space for me to keep exploring new technologies.
