Teaching convolutional neural networks to give me friends

The 1.5-month-long hiatus is over! Note to self: Never lip-sync things that don't need to be lip-synced. It takes forever

Here's HyperGAN, the tool I used to create the images: https://github.com/255BITS/HyperGAN

Skip to 10:23 if you just want to see the friends being generated!

There's a bug with the simulation at 1:30... if a "must be black" pixel hovers over a white pixel that's also part of a donut, it will answer "yes" even though it should answer "no". Hopefully you can still see what's supposed to happen, though...

I probably should've clarified I'm not an expert in this field, so maybe I shouldn't have spoken with such confidence.
