AI for Everyone, Part 5 — Colourising Photos With a 0.47M U-Net, and Why the Colours Came Out Washed Out
The smallest model in this series — a 472K-parameter U-Net — restored colour to greyscale CIFAR-10 images. Shapes survived intact, but the colours came out noticeably washed out. That is not a capacity problem; it is a c

The phrase "make a 3D model" hides two completely different problems. Reconstruction brings a scene that actually exists back to life from a handful of photos, while generation conjures something that does not exist from
