Thanks to Artificial Intelligence powered MyHeritage’s Deep Nostalgia tool, people across the world are awe-struck seeing coming old pictures coming to life.
The AI-powered results can be arresting. Seeing a loved one’s face speaking looking at you once more, smiling and emoting, is an emotional experience. So is seeing a long-lost ancestor you didn’t even know you were related to.
The short video clips are also great business for MyHeritage. Users have shared their Deep Nostalgia results left and right across social channels.
Indian author of ‘The Dharma Forest’, Keerthik Sasidharan used the tool and infused life in old pictures of national heroes like Bhagat Singh, Lokmanya Tilak, Aurobindo Ghosh, Munshi Premchand, Kasturba Gandhi, Swami Vivekananda and it began spree of other twitter users recreating more pictures.
Kind of surreal to take a photo of the singularly inspiring Bhagat Singh — a revolutionary voice in 1920s India, who was hung by the British in 1931, at the age of 24 — run it through the Heritage AI algorithm, and see him reanimated. pic.twitter.com/CfC0Gu6Gxk
