GANs in Action

Chapter 12. Looking ahead

This chapter covers

• The ethics of generative models
• Three recent improvements that we expect to be dominant in the years to come:
  • Relativistic GAN (RGAN)
  • Self-Attention GAN (SAGAN)
  • BigGAN
• Further reading for three more cutting-edge techniques
• A summary of the key themes and takeaways from this book

In this final chapter, we want to give you a brief overview of our thoughts about the ethics of GANs. Then we will talk about some important innovations that we expect to be even more important in the future. This chapter includes high-level ideas that we expect to define the future of GANs, but it does not feature any code. We want you to be prepared for the GANtastic journey ahead—even for advances that are yet to ...
