Turn your Photos into poems, with this new AI-powered Poetry Camera
In recent times, AI has been changing the way of things globally. Recently, a new tool was introduced to the world “Poetry Camera”, which claims to turn your photos into poems. This camera looked like a normal Polaroid camera, but despite capturing your images, it turns out the images into a poem.
This beautiful invention is a perfect fusion of art and technology. The users can choose different poetry forms in this poetic camera as per their preference and choice. Also focusing on the privacy of the users, the camera will not save any of the images digitally. “We don’t save any of the images or the poems digitally. There are a few reasons for that: One, it’s easier. Two: privacy. Three, it adds extra meaning to the poems if they’re like these ephemeral sorts of artifacts.”
The Poetry camera communicates with OpenAI GPT 4 to generate poems from images. Raspberry Pi works as the heart of this camera to generate poetry from different images.
This new open-source project is in its development phase and was introduced by Zhang and Mather, to the world. They both seamlessly blend their love for technology with the beautiful art form.

“I think poetry cameras are a microcosm of what will happen to many industries with AI. Poetry cameras are unlike a traditional discipline: You never met someone who says, ‘Oh, I’m a poetry photographer for corporate events,’ laughs Zhang. Poetry Cameras are in between this established field of photography and poetry. It is this new, weird thing. Most importantly, watching people interact with them is enjoyable: People find childlike joy in their playful persona.”
However, this project is an open-source project and is not available for commercial use. But in the future, I can be available for the public to generate beautiful poems with this “poetry camera”. “After the first 100 times people asked, we said, ‘We’re not selling it,’ but after 101 questions, we started thinking about it in more detail, wondering if we should be making it available to people,” Zhang contemplates. “But at the same time, it’s an art project, you know? Our initial response was to leave capitalism out of it.”
