Lets start with the positive. The following worked for me.
googliser is shell script that worked for me (the only mechanism that I worked for me in colab).
Here are the steps (can be found in the git as well)
- !apt install imagemagick
- !bash <(wget -qO- git.io/get-googliser)
- !googliser --phrase “apple” --title ‘Apples!’ --color ‘full’ --number 50 --upper-size 100000 -o ‘./data’ -G
Here what didn’t work for me:
- google-mages-download. I should have searched the forum earlier.
- ai_utilities it actually almost worked except the image_download() hits somekind of issue with the path.
