Humans see figures in the sky. In the ever-changing clouds, they discover the face of a laughing child, a dog, and at times, the form of a god. This kind of perception also appears in the vision of AI.

Cloud Face is a collection of cloud images that AI has recognized as human faces. This is the result of an error in AI vision. Yet some of these images also appear as faces to human eyes. If this is an error for AI, it is imagination for humans. The error of AI and the imagination of humans meet.
