Restoring Appearances Of People Through Machine Learning Technology
The result, however, is an image of a person that doesn’t exist. Isn’t it crazy? You can get a photograph of a person who literally has never existed and was just fully created by a program yet it looks so real.
Bas is nearing 10k followers on Instagram and we expect that his audience will only grow. If you want to see more of his unique creations and follow his unique art project we suggest you follow him on social media. He’s already got quite a collection of “photographs” of made-up people, and the fans of his art are having a blast trying to figure out who they are in the comments.
Who knows if these “photographs” are actually closer to real life and better at restoring appearances of historical figures, but it’s certainly fun to take a look at what Van Gogh, Napoleon, Rembrandt, Sandro Botticelli, Niccolò Machiavelli, Michelangelo’s David and others might’ve looked like if you could actually take a photograph of them. It’s like a really confusing time travel journey but through AI created photographs.
