We introduce a multi-modal discriminative and generative frame-work capable of assisting humans in producing visual content re-lated to a given theme, starting from a collection of documents(textual, visual, or both). This framework can be used by edit or to generate images for articles, as well as books or music album covers. Motivated by a request from the The New York Times (NYT) seeking help to use AI to create art for their special section on Artificial Intelligence, we demonstrated the application of our system in producing such image.
