About BananaToaster
What the heck is a BananaToaster?
It all started when Alex—one of our Co-Founders—stumbled across the 'Adversarial Patch' research paper published by Google researchers in 2018. The paper explains how they tricked an image classification AI into thinking a banana was a toaster.
Alex of course found this humorous and became acquainted with the Makerspace at UC. He ended up printing a t-shirt inspired by the research paper. Over the years, it became an inside joke amongst friends, until late 2023 when BananaToaster was founded!
