“This Waifu Does Not Exist § Results”, Gwern2019-02-19 ()⁠:

I describe how I made the website ThisWaifuDoesNotExist.net (TWDNE) for displaying random anime faces generated by StyleGAN neural networks, and how it went viral.

TWDNE traffic results: China virality drove hundreds of thousands of users, and traffic remains at nontrivial levels through to 2020.
