There are lots in there with proper ASCII check out https://ascii.rest/julia-set/ for example
replyYour point is valid, I just want to add that deriving ASCII versions of them should be trivial as ASCII already has dots of different pitch, etc.
replyThe point is that what you've described is no longer a useful definition of "ASCII art". That's now "art with dots". The fact that it's "technically" ASCII is as irrelevant as it is unimpressive.
reply"ASCII art", defined honestly, means "limited set ASCII art".
Please, go right ahead and make your own trueascii.rest and show it to the class.

Where's yours?
This isn't ascii art either, since nearly all of the information is in the color. This is, what we used to call, ANSI art [1].
replyWell, it's technically PETSCII art, but the model can be trained on any bitmap charset. So you can make ATARIART or SPECCYART or whatever.
replyIt's not correct to say that most of the information is in the color, though.
I can't remember if it's explained in the readme or not, but what makes this different from other converters is that it matches 1bit 8x8 blocks from the source image to the best matching character, increasing the perceived resolution of the output image.
It's a dumb idea I wanted to implement to amuse myself, and it's not better or worse than any similar tools, but AFAIK it uses a novel approach: fast by using a custom trained NN and uniquely looking output, similar to what a human artist might create by hand.
I love how prepared for this you were.
replyYou're asking for the impossible!
