This is the sort of great work that invites the question of whether "can" == "should".
It's awesome that the work of great artists can be reduced to an algorithm. That effort is its own kind of art, and will see application (e.g. restoration work) far and wide. It could help with tutorials for students to get into these older styles.
Despite all of the intermediate goodness, I still want the no-kidding product I buy to have had some actual human imperfection and idiosyncrasy injected.

- new2628 7y agoI think you give these projects too much credit. They do not reduce the work of great artists to an algorithm and they do not turn user's photos into renaissance paintings. These projects are technically impressive and interesting, but art is not going anywhere.
