🎨 Introduction to Deep Dream Generator
The video begins with an introduction to Super Mega Tutorials and the topic of transforming public domain and Creative Commons 0 images into something useful for websites or e-learning. The presenter plans to use a Deep Dream Generator, a web tool that leverages Google's deep dream technology to enhance images. The presenter chooses not to explain the complex neural technology behind it and instead focuses on demonstrating how to use the generator. The process starts with creating an account on the Deep Dream Generator website, which offers a straightforward interface despite some navigation challenges. The first step is selecting 'Deep Style,' which applies a chosen style over the user's image, as demonstrated through the public gallery featuring a stylized image of a cat.
