Imagine you're trying to make a game by yourself or as an independent software developer with a shoestring budget and you need some illustrated characters, or imagine you need some anime style faces to create visuals for advertising or marketing purposes, or imagine you're simply looking for a unique icon for your social media account. Sai-chan can help.
Sai-chan will draw for you
Sai is the name of a new AI tool on Radius5 Inc.'s "Cre8tiveAI" platform, and it is specifically designed to draw face illustrations.
Raduis5 has built its own neural network through Deep Learning technology, and used it to teach Sai to generate illustrations. Just like a human illustrator, Sai learns through looking at images, capturing elements such as eyes, hair, and other features of illustrations. As a result, Sai can produce entirely new illustrations, not a combination of parts.
Sai can generate face illustrations in manga or other art styles according to users' preferences through a simple UI operation.

Following suggestions on the screen, Sai can narrow down the choices to arrive at the ideal face illustration the user is looking for.
