We are a research group at the University of Turin and with your help we can better understand how faces are used online.
This is why we would like to invite you to participate in our FRESCO research project, which aims to collect and analyse profile images using artificial intelligence.
By participating in the project you will receive a unique image processed by DeepDream, a neural network that creates surreal and dreamlike images. Imagine seeing yourself through the eyes of an artificial intelligence – it’s an experience not to be missed!
Not only will you receive an exclusive image, but your participation will help scientific research to discover the ways in which we use our faces in online communication.
To participate, simply follow the link and send in your profile photo.
Get involved!
