The game, developed by Caroline Buttet and Emmanuel Durgoni from Google Arts & Culture Lab, presents players with four similarly-themed artworks. Three of them are sourced from Google’s Arts and Culture collection, and one is created by AI. Your goal is to find an AI intruder before the time runs out.

While it may sound simple, the task is actually much more difficult. This is why the game gives you four lives before it restarts, and believe us when we say you’ll need each one. You can test your skills by clicking here.

Sometimes, there are obvious clues that the art was made by AI, like a futuristic style, odd shapes, or an over-polished look. But other times, it is almost impossible to single out the artificial intelligence work.

Odd One Out is part of Google’s project to develop “AI-powered ways to play with arts and culture.”

 “The starting point for these new experiments was applications of Google AI Image Generation Research to inspire cultural discovery and learning through play,” Google says about the game.

Dinda recently shared a video on his YouTube channel PiXimperfect in which he demonstrated how to use the endless possibilities of AI in your favor. His example included having AI generate a photo of him posing with a girlfriend. After that, he would use the photo to convince his relatives that he has a girlfriend, and they would hopefully leave him alone.

As it turned out, his experiment was more than successful. People could barely tell the difference, and his family and friends were expecting a wedding announcement soon.

“One friend was even on the verge of booking a flight to attend my wedding,” he shared in a chat with My Modern Met.

Dinda’s video doesn’t only have an entertaining back story, but it also covers how you can use AI to manipulate photos by adding or removing people from them. And it’s safe to say the final results are quite impressive.

Watch the video below to see how Dinda created his fake girlfriend and to learn more fascinating things about artificial intelligence.

But if you’re one of the people wondering how your portrait would look like if it were painted by one of the great artists in history, this new app is for you.

AI Portraits Ars – developed by MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab’s Mauro Martino, Emanuele Del Sozzo, Owen Cornec, and Luca Stornaiuolo from Politecnico di Milano and Liza Gazeeva – uses information from over 45,000 15^th century images to help ‘paint’ a portrait of any photo uploaded.

The team opted to choose this era as it was a period in art history where realistic portraits gained popularity among people from higher social classes.

The app uses Artificial Intelligence to replicate artistic human portraits and is able to create them in real-time at 4k resolution. Unlike other photo apps and filters that turn your photo into a work of art but leave the facial lines untouched, AI Portraits distinguishes itself with its GAN models, generating a new painting where facial lines are completely redesigned. It determines the best style for the portrait by analyzing the features and background.

“We have trained Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) models to reproduce human portraits, with different styles and levels of abstraction. GANs are a very popular class of deep generative models,” reads the website.

To use this tool, you just have to upload a picture of yourself and let the AI work for you. Check out some of the AI portraits below.
