Prisma was a land grab because the original authors didn't make an app. Hell I started working on my own version at the time since it was such an obvious app.

The original authors finally got around to making their DeepArt app, so we have at least two players in this space atm.

I think either of these two players will incorporate this research, but there's no clear incentive for anyone else to try and get in on this market now. It's not clear that there's a whole lot of money to be made here, but who knows maybe usage will explode. I mostly expect an acquisition.

Looks like Zuckerberg is working on a version too - https://www.facebook.com/zuck/videos/10103204449698911/

Plug for my mostly ignored version, that runs on Mac & Windows. It processes high res images unlike Prisma, and runs entirely locally. And can process videos of arbitrary length & resolution. http://macdaddy.io/Style/

I will try it out on Windows10 in the next days! Seems interesting for processing photos instead of having to use Prisma on Android.

I imagine we will see many clones when Google open sources their implementation too (as mentioned in the article, along with others mentioned in this thread as well). I wasn't aware of DeepArt. I'll check it out.

There are already quite a few open source implementations. Some of them are even pretty decent.
