There are all these great blog posts about Deep Learning describing all that awesome stuff.  - Is it all that easy? Let's check!

We'll look into: style transfer (making a picture look like painting), speech generation (like Siri or Alexa) and text generation (writing a story).
In this talk I'll describe the whole journey: A fun ride from the idea to the very end including all the struggles, failures and successes.
