Why are Indonesia Archivesthese AI-generated memes better than any a human being could make?

Internet users have used the Imgflip meme generator to create their own memes for the better part of a decade. Now, the site is generating its own memes, using the help of artificial intelligence.

Harkening back to AI-generated feet pictures and AI-generated faces, the site This Meme Does Not Exist matches captions with a selection of popular meme formats.

Here's an extremely topical example.

Its creator, Imgflip founder Dylan Wenlau, used his machine learning platform Tensorflow and Keras to generate the captions. His dataset included roughly 100 million public meme captions posted by Imgflip users, he wrote in a Medium post, and 48 of the most popular meme formats.

"Character-level generation rather than word-level was chosen here because memes tend to use spelling and grammar...uh...creatively," he wrote.

The result: Unhinged, nonsensical memes that are almost too fitting for absurd internet humor.
