You’ve probably heard of Siri, or even received some sass from Alexa, but allow us to introduce Craiyon. The artificial intelligence (AI) art project sketches 50,000+ images a day by taking users’ text input, scouring the internet for millions of related photos, while essentially teaching itself how to draw.

It’s probably only a matter of time until androids are actually showing us around Portland, but until then, join us on a tour of the city through this AI’s… eyes.

We have to wonder, what movie did it watch? | Photos via Craiyon

Portland International Airport

You have to start somewhere, and it seems our digital friend arrived on a direct flight from cyberspace — and got the obligatory carpet pic (although that pattern is looking a little off).

International Rose Test Garden

Who says a nose is required to enjoy the iconic floral beds? Let’s just hope the scary figure on the right is a friend... beep twice if you're okay, little robot.

Donuts and beer

After all that exploring, it looks like our CPU (computer pal unit) wanted a byte to eat — and turned toward two of Portland’s quintessential treats. If you squint your eyes, they do kind of look like 1s and 0s.

Oregon Zoo

Either the keepers recently introduced a new endangered species, or something is very, very wrong in the black bear enclosure.

You can’t deny, it’s got a good eye for landscapes. | Photos via Craiyon

Mount Hood

Ahhh such beauty — cannot compute.

It gets an A- on these. | Photos via Craiyon

Pittock Mansion

Leave it to software to make a difficult profession like architecture look easy.
