Yup. From a technical point of view these style transferring algorithms are really cool. But from an artistic point of view they're dull. And these examples aren't anywhere near as good as those found here: https://github.com/jcjohnson/neural-style for example. Perhaps someone can use this technique as a starting off point for creating something of artistic value, but so far I haven't seen it.

I'm quite partial to this implementation of deep dream: https://github.com/ProGamerGov/Protobuf-Dreamer
Feel like something similar should be possible with a style transfer as well.
