Using AI to Generate Memes
In light of new technology like DALLE-2 my partner and I made a fun project called Regular Normal Humans Goal: Use AI to generate memes. Basically how quickly can we create unique social content. How it works, the face: Our meme generator pulls faces directly from thispersondoesnotexist.com in order to have real faces as a backdrop for content. Generating faces at such high quality is a hard task, not to mention compute-intensive. So it makes sense to use a working implementation vs. building our own. How it works the copy: We pull sentences from a corpus of randomly generated sentences and use these to generate more sentences by using them as GPT-3 prompts. The outputted sentences are generally short in length and perfect for grafting onto the images. These phrases are then put onto the image using Python Pillow, a fork of PIL, to process the images. Output: We can create hundreds of combinations in a second. Then can pick and choose which AI-generated memes make us laugh and publish them to whatever channel we choose.
