Як нейромережі бачать вільну та незалежну Україну? Тест dev.ua
Нейронні мережі для генерації зображень бачать світ по-своєму, їхню логіку зрозуміти часом зовсім неможливо. Але таки хочеться. На честь Дня Незалежності України редакція dev.ua вирішила провести невеликий експеримент.
Ми задали чотирьом різним нейронним мережам п’ять однакових запитів: «прапор України», «День Незалежності України», «український Крим», «перемога України» та «українці». Отриманими результатами ми ділимося з вами нижче.
