TLDR Synthetic Data is being used to give models new capabilities — the ability to see things they otherwise wouldn’t, and to make novel predictions. Machine learning systems are predictive, and most require data - the more, the better. Synthetic images created by computers can contain labels whose dimensions cannot even be reliably quantified by humans - parameters like depth, or transparency. Using synthetic data, robots can pick stock and recycle plastic bottles with far greater dexterity when they are trained on synthetic datasets.via the TL;DR App
