    • ·         18.1 Generator vs. Discriminator – Two Parts of Creative AI (Goal: Grasp the two-stage process in AI creativity: a generator proposes outputs and a discriminator judges them.)

      • 18.2 Approach 1 – Target Image as the Judge (Goal: Learn the first approach to image generation: using a specific target image as the “discriminator” to guide a generator.)
      • 18.3 Approach 2 – Learned Concept as the Judge (Goal: Understand the second approach: using a trained classifier (general concept) as the discriminator, instead of one specific image.)
      • 18.4 Limits of Fixed Judges and a Hint of Adversarial Training (Goal: Recognize the limitations of the above approaches and foreshadow how training a generator and discriminator together (GANs) addresses these issues.)
