About a month ago, OpenAI released information on their latest project -- a neural network which aims to generate images from text[1]. The results were impressive and the work received a lot of attention in the ML community. The repo linked in this post includes a small portion of the code used in the model. Perhaps I'm missing some context as well, but the code itself appears to be remarkably generic, not particularly interesting, and basically useless on its own. Perhaps the repo is in its early stages and more interesting developments may come later. I'd assume it's simply being upvoted because of all the OpenAI fanboys. Feel free to correct me if I'm mistaken and there is something remotely useful in this repo.
