@sdw said it best on Twitter: "Now they just need a neural net that makes messaging apps that never take off, then they've automated all their work."

Today, Google is introducing a feature in Allo that uses a combination of neural networks and the work of artists to turn your selfie into a personalized sticker pack. Simply snap a selfie, and it’ll return an automatically generated illustrated version of you, on the fly, with customization options to help you personalize the stickers even further.

This looks good. Good to see Google getting into that space too.

Those stickers look a litle bit creepy for me :) But I like the idea.

Creepy looking, but also very cool!

Yeah- eventually something new/useful for Allo. I don't know why the new google assistance is not fully available in Allo :/
