What is GAN, the AI technique that makes computers creative?

Moments of epiphany tend to come in the unlikeliest of circumstances. For Ian Goodfellow, PhD in machine learning, it came while discussing artificial intelligence with friends at a Montreal pub one late night in 2014. What came out of that fateful meeting was “generative adversarial network” or (GAN), an innovation that AI experts have described as the “coolest idea in deep learning in the last 20 years.”

Goodfellow’s friends were discussing how to use AI to create photos that looked realistic. The problem they faced was that current AI techniques and  architectures, deep learning algorithms and deep neural networks, are good at classifying images, but not very good at creating new ones... https://bdtechtalks.com/2018/05/28/generative-adversarial-networks-artificial-intelligence-ian-goodfellow/
