In the spirit of Halloween, MIT created a website called Nightmare, exploring the power of AI to make everything from the Eiffel Tower to random faces really, really creepy. The website showcases these efforts, including many spooky landscapes along with distorted, horrifying faces.

The creepiness of deep learning software-generated images isn't exactly news--Google's Deep Dream in particular is known for transforming images into many-eyed dog-faced horrors. But this is the first AI we've seen that is intended specifically to make things look scary.

A personalized collection of Haunted Faces.

To that end, MIT is asking the internet to rate their AI-generated Haunted Faces. By doing so, you'll help the software learn what freaks us out. Your efforts surely will be useful to our future robot overlords.

Happy Halloween!
