AI learns how to colorize photos, makes old Japan pictures look like they were taken today?Pics?
And the process it uses to color them isn't what you might expect. We've seen before how artificial intelligence is already on its way to beating humans at playing Go and giving dating advice, but now it seems like there's another area that machines will soon take us over in: colorizing old photographs. Waseda University recently showed off some old Japanese photos that have been fully-colorized by AI that learned the colorization process through analyzing large data sets full of categorized photos. That's the really cool part: the AI is coloring photos based on previous photos that are similar to it. The AI will color it similarly to other birthday photos.
