A quick survey !
Any trend topics?
2020 - 2021 can be assumed to be a breath-taking year for deep learning supported image generation. Deep-fake and Deep-dream applications spread-wide all over the internet and also it is easily implemented on any sample image or video instantly using mobile apps. But, what are Deep-fake and Deep-dream?
"How fascinating it is to imagine a computer that, dreams?"
Deep-Dream is a computer vision program created by Google engineer Alexander Mordvintsev that uses a convolutional neural network to find and enhance patterns in images via algorithming a dream-like hallucinogenic appearance in the deliberately over-processed images. Here, see for yourself:

"Nothing is real, everything is permitted."
Deep-Fake is artificial media in which a person in an existing image or video is replaced with someone else's likeness. While the act of faking content is not new,
Deep-Fakes leverage powerful techniques from machine learning to manipulate or generate visual and audio content with a high potential to deceive.
