ImageSpace: Using AI to Visualize Large Image Collections in the Browser

ImageSpace uses AI to turn any image collection into an interactive scatter plot. OpenAI's CLIP vision model generates embeddings, t-SNE arranges them by visual similarity, and HDBSCAN clusters them automatically—all viewable in the browser with no backend required.
