GenFrame

GenFrame prototyp at ITU.

GenFrame is an interactive picture frame that mimics traditional paintings while being equipped with generative AI capabilities. Painting “portraits of a girl” has been a trope in art history for centuries. However, in the era of generative AI models, the perma- nence of traditional art is challenged. When an AI model is able to mimic…
