What would you look like if you lived, for example, within the Roman Empire or among the Vikings? Here’s an artificial intelligence that does it.
Thanks to written documentation and, of course, the movies that have been recorded in relation to empires hundreds or thousands of years ago, we can get an idea of how our ancestors lived. In fact, thanks to the information present today, we can find out who once lived in our cities and, of course, what battles took place in the place where you were born and raised. Now, if you had been born at that time, What image would you have or how would you dress?
A new artificial intelligence has been created so that you can experience first-hand what you would look like if you had grown up in the Roman Empire or among the Vikings. It is a program that has been specially designed to take into account factors such as the weather or facial features, among others. The result is very interesting, since it allows you to get an idea about what were the keys to understandingfor example, the clothes that were used or why there were various accessories that had great relevance.
Let’s see, therefore, what are the differential signs to be able to be framed as a Roman or a Viking thanks to this curious technology, why it is a program that has been studied with a great level of detail and, of course, even what point are we facing an artificial intelligence system with differential qualities. So you can travel easily and in just a few seconds to past times.

The company in charge of this project has been MyHeritage. Only a photograph of us should be used so that the program does everything necessary to offer a result. The created system has been baptized as AI Time Machine. And yes, it is a time machine that will allow us to travel to past times in which clothes and lifestyles were very different from today. It is a tool that is very easy to use, since in just a few steps you can have the result you were looking for.

Contrary to what happens with other applications, this system requests the upload of several images in order to display a much more complete result at the end of the process. Thus, it can be interesting to have at hand a dozen photographs of your profile at various angles in order to have a differential and more realistic result. That being said, there are a whole host of alternatives that target Ancient Greece or the Victorian era, as well as the Egyptian empire. You can even become an astronaut!
It is important to note that this is a program close to professional. In fact, we are not facing the typical filters that we can see on social networks. No, this project takes, in fact, up to half an hour to be able to offer an interesting result and close to the realism that we would expect. Similarly, you can use on mobile devices and computers, so it adapts to different types of screens. Similarly, it is important to note that, to a large extent, the result depends on the quality of the images uploaded to the system.
Finally, it is important to specify that AI Time Machine complies with all necessary and current measures regarding data protection and their compilation, an aspect that is gaining weight when it comes to using certain tools by the public. So, why don’t you take the plunge and test how this incredible program, unknown to many, works?
