“Selfies with Historical Figures: Exploring the Advancements in AI Technology”

Artificial Intelligence is advancing at an unprecedented pace, and the capabilities of the Open AI’s ChatGPT only prove this fact. But, ChatGPT is just one of the many AI-powered platforms available which can create text, code and even generate realistic images from commands. One such platform is Mid Journey, which has recently facilitated the creation of realistic images from ancient times, showing how famous historical figures could have looked if they had taken selfies.

Duncan Thomsen, a 53-year-old image director from London, is one of the many artists who have harnessed the power of AI to create digital content. He has been using his skills to create funny and entertaining photos that feature popular historical figures in unlikely situations. Thomsen’s ambition was to imagine what it would be like if people from centuries ago could take selfies. He then used Mid Journey to create the settings for these photos and adjusted various elements to complete the look. The resulting images are truly remarkable.

The image of Napoleon’s army before the battle of Waterloo is particularly striking. The soldiers look happy to serve the emperor who had gained vast territories through his military campaigns. This image gives us a glimpse into how joyful moments from our past might have looked like, had we been able to capture them in a more modern way.

Another incredible image is of Cleopatra and her court, who appear to be having a blast at a party. Cleopatra, in particular, seems to have picked the perfect angle to capture herself and her guests, which perfectly embodies the party’s lively atmosphere.

Jesus and his disciples, in the image of the Last Supper, are depicted in high spirits, which could give us a sense of how they might have felt during this crucial event in Christian history. This image, in particular, deserves special attention since it was once considered taboo to depict Jesus in any form of art. Still, with AI-enabled technology, we can now witness an event that has changed the course of history.

Queen Victoria and her regal entourage are also depicted in a lively, joyous portrait, which could pass off as a modern-day group selfie. The vibrant smiles on Victoria and her subjects’ faces truly capture the Group’s joyous mood and highlight how the use of AI has enabled us to depict the feeling of the moment perfectly.

The Neanderthals, too, have not been left out of AI’s new-found ability to create remarkable images. Neanderthals, one of the earliest known forms of human beings, are depicted in a happy, care-free moment during the stone age, which seems like a happy moment in our distant family history.

In conclusion, the power of AI to create realistic and captivating images is unparalleled. These images, in a way, allow us to travel back in time, to a period that was once beyond our reach, and enable us to experience that moment. AI has provided us with an incredible tool that allows us to learn from our past while preserving our history for future generations.
