Some GOTDers today may be intrigued about what this software purports to do. Downloading and trialing is usually the best way to go about discovering that, but in this instance I'd recommend some preliminary research, seeing as how my encounter with an earlier version offered on here mirrored that of a reply by reliable GOTD regular TKto post #29:

Nothing in today's giveaway details suggests that the massive installation and subsequent major hit on computer resources has changed. Running it on an x64 OS (it won't do so on a 32-bit OS) is possible if one is so inclined, but allocating local storage and devoting local resources isn't the only way to go. This offline facility is free to use:

You'll need to register with an email address and password, after which you can look at the work of others and 'generate' your own AI masterpiece. . . or not: perhaps predictably, the vast majority of this kind of "artwork" on the 'Net is mere Grotesquerie, the seeming result of Hieronymous Bosch having a bad day some time in the 15th Century.

There's also another free -- and excellent -- online resource that's been around for quite a while for anyone interested in transforming and re-rendering their images: Lunapic. It may not lay claim to neural networking and AI but it's pretty darn good at rendering images that have been subject to effects manipulation:

Finally: one particular software offering that's also entirely free of charge, isn't a resource hit nor a massive install, and works equally well on 32bit and 64bit machines -- including Vista -- is the delightful FotoSketcher from France-based independent developer David Thoiron:

For those interested in software which doesn't involve neural networks, Artificial Intelligence, and the ability to reconstitute an image of human form in a mess of paisley-patterned goldfish heads, those two 'traditional' resources are highly recommended, LunaPic online, FotoSketcher on your 'pooter.

For those interested in exploring the surreal, then today's offer is obviously going to be more suitable, but if its presence turns out to be too excessive and demanding, then there's no need to bewail that on here: the online Deep Dream generator is readily accessible to all.

Got version 2.1.0.5 last time it was given away. Great fun program, but resource intensive and, if allowed to, it will bog the entire system down.

I learned to go to Task Manager on my Win 8 computer and set it's "Affinity" to only use 2 or 3 of my 4 processor cores. Then I can still do other things while it runs in the background.

Hoping this newer version addressed the resource hogging issue. I know these sorts of programs need a lot of processor power, but it should know better than to take it all.

@ Abdul Rahman and Svend Östergaard
in order to get no water mark in the finished images, you have to remove the check mark "Show watermark" under Settings - License and Watermark.

Tested on a photo after I registered the program, yet the photo is supplied with a "Style app" watermark.
So no thanks!

Svend Östergaard, You can turn off the watermark in the options.

I guess they assume that you want it for some strange reason.

Wow. 4 GB or RAM needed. Looks like a fun program but I know without even trying that it's pointless for me to even give it a try. My old computer could not handle it.
