- We're on the edge of a new frontier in art and creativity - and it's not human. Blaise Agüera y Arcas, principal scientist at Google, works with deep neural networks for machine perception and distributed learning. In this captivating demo, he shows how neural nets trained to recognize images can be run in reverse, to generate them. The results: spectacular, hallucinatory collages (and poems!) that defy categorization. "Perception and creativity are very intimately connected," Agüera y Arcas says. "Any creature, any being that is able to do perceptual acts is also able to create."

![Yoshi Rinrada - 'มาทำไม' [Official MV]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/r41xbfRLkLs/mqdefault.jpg)
Wow!
I find it extremely interesting, that all those images created by the computer are extremely similar to what one sees under the influence of psychedelics like LSD or psilocybin! With open eyes your evironment, especially when looking at the clouds, looks just like those images. And when ones eyes are closed it looks just like the image at the end, where it gets zoomed further and further in and new images are created based on what we think we see next.
This gives a really good understanding of how recognition works!
Yeah exactly! It's kind of like becoming more aware of the different layers of processing in the visual cortex..Becoming more aware of the pattern recognition mechanisms before the brain jumps to a fixed conclusion.
Those zooming in patterns your referring to are called fractals I believe.
yeh its really interesting actually it shows that a rudimentary form of perception in computers is like what happens when you make ur own sense of perception a bit more rudimentary with psychedelics - cause lsd causes the parts of the brain that aren't supposed to interact with each other to connect therefore disrupting the pathways leading to the complex perception of an image.
What a time to be alive
right
Totally agree! That's one of the reasons that I always get piss off when some people say of crap like "Oh, this's the worst generation ever!"
I always remember this saying 'May you live in interesting times'. Some say it's meant as a curse. Whatever it's meaning, these are truly interesting times.
USA USA USA! We will bomb stuff! Computers wihh help.
+krishna maverick it's a curse
Being on DMT is like having the facial recognition software in its most ambiguous setting and your peripheral vision looks alot like that rendering of the cloud image. I know this may sound dumb but I think they're on to something because I had a feeling of nostalgia looking at these images like I attribute them to my years of DMT use.
the software at the end that is creating the next image based on what ot thinks it is seeing is some trippy stuff
DrG0nz071 Well, they work by activating serotonin receptors :p
@This could be your advertisement! that's about as useful as saying neural networks like in the video work by 'activating transistors' :p
But I think there are clear similarities with hallucinogens and this, in a way both are reducing the threshold at which patterns emerge, to the point that identifiable features like faces emerge out of almost randomness. I don't know, super interesting topic though!
the zooming starting 14'30" is amazing
14:30
There is a website which loops a similar zoom, as far as i remember i found it in a vsauce video
I'm trying to find the website plz help xD
Sounds like you're looking for DeepDreamGenerator, search that as one word. It'll produce amazing still pictures just like the ones in the video, but if you want to animate it, the animation version is on github. Github's a little overwhelming for casual users, though.
A less technical but more time-consuming way to animate a DeepDream zoom is to take a lot of still images, zooming and dreaming between each shot, and then use a video editing program to stitch the images together into a video sequence. I'm working on something along those lines at the moment and it's taking a loooong time.
So, can we feed it the old Dragonball episodes and it will learn to generate new Dragonball episodes?
Oh my god. it could probably finish the Song of Ice and Fire series when G.R.R. Martin dies. :D
I want a better teen Titans ending
I'm done
That would be sooooo awesome.
that's pretty much saying we should get someone to animate and continue the show lol.
As it was said in the video perception is a process of turning sounds and images into concepts in the mind. With the help of perception we create and imagine using our brains. And the speaker actually found a way to turn his imagination and ideas into a computer program. Also, computing is a unique way to understand and extend minds. Which is an extraordinarily thing!
Камила Кулиева well, I have to say that this process will be an important discovery. Personally, I think that this discovery can change humanity and all ways of sharing information
Well, you've got a point, but I think that computer can change the real idea of brains so it can be creative, but it will show people's minds in a wrong way
I knew these things before thanks to a project and tbh this guy managed to explain it in an accessible way. Congratulations :)
This fractal zoom is an interesting metaphor for conciousness. I just hope our creations are aimed in the right direction, love and compassion. Although the military usually has the money to start 😒
People say machines that'll fight our wars for us will save lives of soldiers, but it won't. All soldiers will loose their only jobs, and then the winning side's robot army would proceed to conquer the loser's domain. How is this any improvement?
+Gaming Heaven002
Not likly if war is fought the keep your own population in place. Who cares about the "enemy". The robots will enslave us on so many levels but mostly mentaly. If we ate fat and lazy today, we will be stupid and ashame tomorrow.
Yeah. The thing is, humans are too lazy to do anything until it is too late. I mean look at global warming, we all know about it, we all know it will end this planet and us if we aren't careful, do we do anything about it? No not on any scale that matters. People still don't recycle, they aren't willing to cycle to work because it is slightly chilly. People always think that a tiny action won't have any consequences, but when you fail to recycle a coke can 7.5 billion times, we start to see the tiny problem, become a big one.
Why does people doesn't understand that loosing a job like soldier, car driver or worker in a factory is a bad thing ? Yes they will loose their source of revenue, but then the problem is society, not machines made to free us from a stupid task.
I actually watched this because somebody said it would make me happy. And whaddaya know, I got so enthralled in the video I kind of forgot my own problems for twenty minutes. I'm now subscribed. Thumbs up for an interesting talk!
that last thing was quiet like a trip
Best explanation of machine learning and neural networks I've had the pleasure to see! Thank you!
This is an amazing human creativity . I always wonder understand what computers "draw" if they have a complex creative algoritm... So...this is the answer. Thank you very much. Fantastic work!
Such a great and entertaining explanation of the topic! Thank you.
I would love to spend a work day with this guy.
8:44 i like how camera shoots people laughing and having fun.. like "hey, look at all the fun we're having, come, join us.. "
and on 12:24 she really agreed on that, my god she's absolutely perfect
Спасибо за субтитры.
Seeing the facial reconstruction blew my mind. Understand that it's looking for one person's face, find another that is similar and then building the first person's face from reference images that are no doubt reduced to only key features...
The narrator gave a talk about creativity is not only about people nowadays. The way neuro nets can recognise and regenerate images was presented in this video. As a result, computer presented spectacular, hallucinatory and even poems. Due to narrator's idea, interpretation and creativity are strongly connected.
Personally I think that Lucky pie covered the topic well enough.
Fascinating. The potential for this technology is awesome and scary!
impressive... most
insightful ted talk i've listened to
Thank you very much, very interesting!
Well and clearly presented
Bard asked me to tell Blaise Agüera y Arcas this,
"Thank you for your leadership in the field of artificial intelligence. Your work is helping to shape the future of AI, and I am confident that you will continue to make significant contributions to the field."
I would also say that I am inspired by your commitment to the responsible development of AI. I believe that AI has the potential to do great good in the world, and I am grateful that you are working to ensure that AI is used for good.
Finally, I would say that I am excited to see what the future holds for AI. I believe that AI has the potential to solve some of the world's most pressing problems, and I am confident that Blaise Agüera y Arcas will continue to play a leading role in shaping the future of AI.
I also agree with Bard. Thank you!
It explains to me why we dream in the way we dream.
Our brain regenerates the image of things that it is processing while we are sleeping.
and sometimes it records them and sometimes it feeds itself with the result.
Now I understand my dreams.
I think creativity is more linked to perception plus intention, or purpose, otherwise it is just random stuff around a pre established subject.
One of the best talks I've seen.
great simplification of newton's method in matrices
That was an amazing simple explanation of machine learning.
Let's get creative!
NO GOD PLEASE NO
+
+JP de la Torre I don't think many people here get what + means.
Alex Randomkat Yeah, most likely. I hope the + helped a little, tho.
Probably did.
That is a very layman explanation of Neural Network. A very good one too.
This gives us so much insight into how our brains work.
This is truly incredible
Очень заинтересовало ,буду изучать!)
Great talk, fascinating stuff!
Well presented content in our journey to understand vision and creativity better 😃
This is awesome. Is the artwork available for viewing in its entirety anywhere?
Very nice, thanks for the lecture :)
If I ever attended a ted talk I would be perpetually nodding in agreement in the off chance that the camera panned to me. I would look engaged and intelligent. Hopefully people on the internet would see me and then would think I was smart enough to attend said Ted talk.
For those who liked the zooming in on "hallucinated" images (solved for X), check out Deep Dream if you haven't :)
It's this kind of process open sourced from google's Deep Mind
Really great video.
thats flat out genius. and its easy to understand
this is really cool stuff.
Insanely awesome!
Anyone think he sounds like a text-to-speech narrator?
y it's a bit cringy :x
Show some respect, this man is probably more intelligent than your entire family combined.
+Mikolaj1406 indeed, he is an invaluable asset in this ever evolving world.
He's Stephen Hawking's surrogate voice
Nah...
He sounds something like Carl Sagan to me. I never did like Mr. Sagan when I was a kid because of the way he talked, but today I admire him for what he gave the world. There are probably a ton much better to listen to, and some much more bright that never could get past stage fright and wanted to very badly, and there are those like me that just didn't see the point of taking the time. But, I'm here to tell you, the world badly needs these forward thinkers to give inspiration to those of their kind in subsequent generations to carry on. Thank you for reading my post.
In this video we can see a new way of art and creativity, and it’s not human. Google’s scientist works with deep neural networks for machine sense and distributed learning. In this really interesting presentation, he shows how neural networks learned to identify images can be done vice versa, to generate the same things. We can see the machines’ results: grand hallucinatory pictures and poems that quite good.
It's is inaccessible for me to understand brain in detail, But your lecture gives me overall principle about brain system
Thank you !!
it's amazing...
Awesome video!
14:50 I LOVE THIS (A.I LUNATIC FRACTALS )
Great upload
that's really brilliant idea!
WOW I GOT "HERE IN MY GARAGE" AD AGAIN!!! LEGEND IS BACK! KNAAAALEDGE
One great application from this deep learning is an app called Prisma. It redraws a photo based on reference painting style.
The speaker is a principal scientist at Google, who works with deep neural networks for machine perception and distributed learning. He tells us about technologies and how they could develop. He noticed that computers were created a little bit common to human brain because it also uses electricity to transfer the information. And scientists suppose that computers can be as creative as people
Диана Шаргаева Well,from my point on view, the computers can’t exist without human and their help. All that computers do is created by people,by their work. But on the other side, computers often invent things,that we have never seen before. So,don’t you think,that computers won’t do any art without human?
Neural networks are in their essence very similar to a human's brain, and that's why perception and creativity can be found in a computer, too. We can use artificial intelligence to both recognize information and create something new from the data it received. By doing this, computing helps us understand and even extend our own mind's capability.
The speaker tells about creativity, the human brain, the computer and their connection. He speaks about the history of researching the brain and how the structure of the brain is similar to the computer's. He speaks about a working process of the computer and identifying pictures by it. Also, he says that all in all, computers can be creative and they will improve their skills.
In this video the speaker shows us that not only people can be creative. The speaker shows how the neural nets trains to recognise imagines. The ability to recognize a particular picture is a complex mathematical process . Nowadays the modern computers cannot only recognize pictures , but also create them themselves, which proves that the computer is also creative.
The brain works on patterns. You read this, some neurons in your brain fire in a specific pattern, and by firing those patterns more patterns are brought up by association to the first ones. Like, you see the words (1st patterns), understand them (patterns that are triggered by the first patterns), and you react (new patterns emerge, that form your response). Like, every word you read and every thought you have, generates a new pattern or enforces an old pattern in your brain. Thats why you remember some songs more than others, and certain things have more meaning to you than to others. To have a standard pattern for each thing, for each sensation or memory, would be the ultimate language. Just imagine, you could share with someone that feeling you had when you were in love, or when you were frightened, or a beautiful scenery you saw.
The brain is awesome!
yay finally someone who has the same thoughts!
Is there by any chance a link to a longer version of the "hallucinate-zoom" fugue sequence?
I would really like to show it to John Searle, The founder of the famous Chinese room experiment.
Green is not a creative color
Hahaha 💚
Scrub scrub scrub 'til the water's brown
+No Jams Pesky Bee!
I am friends with my dad.
don't hug me I'm scared!
Incredible
It's incredible when his friend's face was masked with his, the similarity to caricature art that was present.
very cool!
8:48 Bless you!
Amazing.
The face recognition in noisy images is pretty much exactly what I see when I am tripping :P
oh god it's happening
It's okay I'm ready to die
Don't worry. A computer isn't actually conscious. It has a great ability for calculus (not as humans), but it's in fact really stupid. This images are made only by calculus, because that's the only thing a computer can do: calculate and memorize. It hasn't real creativity and it can't appreciate beauty.
Yet.
Arthur Dent I think we will never understand what is consciousness and why we have it but who knows.
Félix Bachiller We just need to keep studying our brains and how they work.
Could the multiple image pattern comes from down sampling by pooling operation?
nice one...
To be creative to me means to do something that is slightly unusual to any given topic or thing. In other words, creativity is the formulation of new patterns.
If you live in a town where everyone has red and blue living room walls and you decide to color one of your walls pink, that's creative.
Creativity doesn't have to be elegant or even impressive, it just needs to be slightly foreign to a given paradigm.
So in this light, anyone can be creative because it is fairly easy to tweek something a tiny bit.
What isn't so easy though is creative genius, which I define as the ability to create new patterns for which others seek to emulate.
Emulation is key. All of us can be creative but can we produce something so novel that others seek to emulate what we've done?
No, that is actually quite difficult sometimes.
So these computers to me are already creative, and when the computers are able to create something that human artists (or even robotic artists) seek to emulate, then the computers will have done a revolutionary thing.
BIRD IS THE WORD
Very deep scientific interpretation! I am inspired to make a art mit deep learning too. I use deepdream generator and in accordance to the presentation above I would like to know where could I find a tool, that record and visualise the process of generation of the picture in the deep CNN? How could I record the intern process of style transformation in film? This is a part of the art object arrising.
Any links for this research paper?
there’s literally no other simulation of psychedelic visuals that even comes remotely close with the real experience other than this technology, and it should come as no surprise since it’s functioning the same way your brain is. we’ll come to see how similar the artificial brain is to our own soon. we don’t know much about this kind of learning or psychedelics but it doesn’t take a genius to see there’s huge parallels and that this is a fucking cool time to be alive.
I would like to use an app to identify birds and other animals like the one in the video here.
Would be nice if they putt links to such things in the description.
I think we all have different notions of what constitutes creativity
But is AI able to love...
joking, just give it weapons already!
Or make a half-ways decent auto-correct.
+Arthur Dent LOL so true!
nahhhh, correcting mistakes caused through the use of weapons might be difficult >.
Bananenbauer123 Make things easier really, free up some parking space wouldn't it?
Arthur Dent indeed xD
that could be perfect for movies, real or animated.
Very perceptive...
What is the paper in which these things are treated?
13:08 Face is in the center of the image.
Is minicing or modeling creativity really creative. Does the computer have awareness of what it's art is or the effect it's art may have and a person's emotions.
MrStevetmq no. It simply executes commands. Although these commands are abstract, they are still commands with specific outputs. This AI was made to make use of data. It takes some training to make the nueral network understand what an acceptable output is. It's not conscience. You can actually calculate tasks by hand of what the output a neutral network could be (if it is seeded) like paper pencil. Everything is set in stone as abstract as it may be.
Love your videos, but PLEASE learn how to add the links over your videos. When in fullscreen, for example, many of them cannot be X'd off because other buttons hide them.
Интересные вещи.)
Can anyone tell me where to find the backpack poetry neural network?
I think it's an experiment done by themselves. So it was like a home-taken picture.
The various neural-network generated images are almost impossible to make out because of the youtube compression, shame.
This explains a lot about the new CPUs Google is working on
New CPU? They're having to reinvent what a computer is, not just it's CPU.
This type of software would benefit from different hardware architecture than is the standard now.
Xxp0r Not really. They're still making a traditional binary computer that uses most of the same modern components. But the CPU they're working on is very different and geared toward learning rather than precision. It's supposed to be sloppy about rounding numbers, which helps dramatically improve performance while yielding the results they're looking for (and those results just happen to not care about precision).
If you think Quantum Computing means they only swap out the CPU, you need to do more research.
Xxp0r I implied nothing about quantum computing... What I'm referring to is explicitly not quantum. It is still just a regular silicon binary computer, just a different CPU architecture. To my knowledge, Google isn't researching quantum computers, or at least not immediately involving them in computer learning.
Let's not jump to conclusions, ok?
im still unconvinced about the basic premise of what it actually means, for AI to perceive. Blaise, you correctly state the computer was modelled on our brains. The leap is to presume the brain is automatically creative. the model we use to learn is based on repition and so the AI will reflect that also. but I found the assumption that perception and creativity to be linked, very interesting.
It’s like the same art style that Pouff uses in his videos, you should go check him out, he has some pretty trippy content!
요즘 다들 호들갑이 박사급이라 2016년 강연을 보니 감회가 새롭네요.
Это аху**но просто. В моем сознании произошел переворот, это уже реально не шуточный ИИ! К тому же это не так уж и сложно, сколько всего можно сделать на основе этой технологии!!
i literally can see the future
And what do you see m8?
androids and flying metal things
He saw your comment
I think that's darn accurate buddy, and we basically have those.
can't wait for deep dream: the movie
Não tem legenda em português 😢🔰
Hippocampus is the sea horse, not a little shrimp.
Was right about to say this, too .... hippo meaning horse and kampos meaning sea monster...
I dunno, AI creating visual "art" is one thing, but it seems like language is a much tougher one to crack. There's so much subtle knowledge a speaker needs about every single word and phrase in order to use them coherently, let alone artfully.
Essentially, an AI would need to be able to think before it can effectively use language. Right now, algorithms can transcribe audio in youtube videos, but the algorithm merely transcribes what it hears even if it makes no semantic sense. A human (who knows the language well) can immediately tell when the transcription is wrong, before the speaker is finished even though the sentence is grammatically correct up to that point.
Creativity is not about images or poems or architecture, it is about communication between creatures. This thing will only be "creative" if we consider it to be a living thing insofar as it is conscious,
The lighting makes everyone who goes onto this show looks sweaty
12:36 Is it me or does that map look like one of the British isles?
