MyHeritage deep fakes family photos into living memories – Pickr

#artificialintelligence 

Your family history is probably in photographs of the past, but thanks to machine learning and an app, they could be somewhat living once again. Technology can do some remarkable things, but one of the more unusual ones in recent years may be the field of deep fakes. It's a technology concept you'd have probably heard of whereby machine learning connects with visual imagery to join the dots and get one image to resemble a next, often in video. It's what happens when the face of one person is matched to the scene or video of another, and has been found used across the world in various ways, from news to ads to film and art. And now, it's being used with family photos, as a family history app and service connects the world of deep fake technology to family photos, giving them some life and reanimating their imagery.
