Google's Autodraw AI instantly converts your doodles to clip art

AutoDraw uses the same technology as another Google experiment called QuickDraw. For the initial rollout, Google used designs from artists and design studios, who it thanks in its blog post.

When you select the AutoDraw tool and start sketching, a row of images showing what Google's AI assumes you are drawing - such as animals, body parts, everyday objects and food - appears at the top of the screen.

If I talk about my career as an artist, it's not more than just a couple of drawings featuring some house or stereotype scenery that the whole class used to draw. Quick, Draw! is a bit like the game Pictionary.

AutoDraw can now recognise "hundred" of doodles, with more being added all the time. Then, you can choose from a number of better looking cakes made by talented artists.

Elizabeth Windsor has given permission for the 48-year-old's coffin to rest in Westminster's Chapel of St Mary Undercroft. Sergeant John Ruffle lead the silence to honour PC Palmer, as his funeral began in central London.

The app is free and it works on any phone, computer or tablet. Or, if amorphous blob is actually what you were striving for, you can turn off the auto suggestions and doodle away.

The latest AI creation from Google is akin to autocorrect, but instead of making suggestions based on words, will give you clip art-esque suggestions based upon your sketches.

"We hope that AutoDraw will make drawing more accessible and fun for everyone".

For example, if you draw two lines crossing each other, Google will suggest objects like a barbed wire, an axe, a rail track, among everything else that the neural network thinks resembles it.
