I have semi-recently been conned into watching One Piece. I say conned with a lot of love, because I’m really enjoying it; both the story and the core-sample that is decades of improvement in animation are right up my alley. I say semi-recently because I’m on episode four hundr...

This might not be the most amazing AI for faces out there, but it’s free and also quite useful. You might have heard of it already, it’s called Artbreeder. About a year ago I used to make my characters come to life, or make them a little more real in my eyes. I haven't used t...
