[@goodkrypollo1706]

The problem is. There is no way AI can capture the emotion of someone in a 100 year old picture. So the AI just assumes they are mostly happy photos when in reality they are not. It's trying to predict what a human might do in that situation. But it cant possibly get it 100 percent right. Therefore it is deceitful in nature.

[@saadrabia]

@@goodkrypollo1706 Not really. The module is basing these animations on the prompt given by the human. It is most likely that the creator asked it to make them smile or laugh. You can do whatever you like with these tools.

[@martygufler2621]

I feel exactly the same way.

[@spessu83]

I've used this tech on my own family member photos and the AI always gets it wrong. So basically you input a photo and the AI makes a video of it. But as soon as the video begins, the person's face becomes something different, even if only slightly, but enough for us to know the face in the video is NOT the face of the person in the photo. We humans can recognize faces so well and can tell small differences.

[@kennyslg8914]

RIGHT. I've always had the same thought. It often feels like they're all just still lifeless portraits even though we know they lived complex lives just like we do.

[@michaelb.42112]

This is the closest thing we have in 2024 to a time machine. Absolutely incredible.

[@artistamisto]

Lincoln was amazing here, but as he smiled and moved his face it began to look less like him. All the theories in here on why he didn't smile in pics plus the believers' thumbs ups are hilarious. There can only be one right answer. And I doubt it was depression. The exposure time seems the most logical, but after looking it up it's just a sign of the times and not everyone thought smiles were appropriate for a portrait. Please google before guessing and try not to contribute to all the false info by giving thumbs ups to those who are incorrect. YT is rampant with several thumbs up on wrong information. 🙄🤡🤡

[@DerLeser2201]

No, this has nothing to do with a time machine but is simply falsifying historical sources... The movements are all simply made up by the AI ​​and in no way reflect the reality behind these images. Anyone who thinks that's good really has no idea about source criticism, the dangers behind it and about history in general.

Wow, I'm surprised how good these came out! It's like we get a little bit more of a glimpse as to who these people were in life.

[@bobbiroberts]

Mind blown 🤯 what's scary is just how real these can be

[@MacXpert74]

The animations are very impressive!

[@a.salmon8193]

This is amazing. History brought to life!

[@Ms.Robot.]

This reminds us that every single life has a story to tell.❤

[@Simkets]

Am I the only one who always gets so surprised they look so "human"? We still look the same, it's still us, nothing has changed no matter if it's today or thousand years ago. They were humans, they had lives, they cried, they laughed, they had troubles and joys. This is just so extremely unbelievable to me... It's like I can't believe those people existed. That they were nothing special or something different. They were just humans like any other....

[@Ellecram]

I absolutely loved Tsar Nicolas. I've had a historical crush on him for years lol!

[@GJL30]

He was a handsome man

[@alessiocallegari1924]

Omg, tsar Nicholas! 😮 Seems like he was joking having a burp and laughing about it 😂

[@jackack1429]

LOL... I thought he was stifling a yawn.

[@urbanvoice8318]

the Tsar was absolutely gorgeous

[@David-gh6vp]

Lots better than the current "Tsar." lol

[@NicholasGresik]

I know it sounds silly, but being able to see figures like Lincoln move really makes you realize they were indeed real people, who laughed and cried and dreamed, so much more than still photographs in a textbook. This AI humanizes them in a really beautiful way.

[@deepoole820]

People would love to be able to buy this as a service to have dear ones back for just a moment. When all you have is an old photo, a few seconds of film in colour would be priceless xxx

[@michelefritchie6198]

This gets better and better! More lifelike movement, moving arms and legs, realistic facial expressions, etc.. Great work!

[@Gr8Passion4Music]

Unbelievably realistic renderings from single photos! Only Elvis's eyelashes looked incorrect. A big applause for the one who made these with AI. The 1st 2 are incredible.

[@Unknown17]

As close to going back into the past as we'll ever get!

[@rogermartin404]

Will take no time at all for this to be used "for or against" ordinary citizens in endless ways.

[@alberteinsteinthejew]

Smiling Lincoln is the most unexpected thing I’ve ever saw

[@macsloan58]

As always……just awesome. Very informative also.

[@johngraves6878]

Amazing. The Lincoln was the best.

[@M0odyBlue]

I love these! Especially when you made Lincoln smile. I don’t think I ever saw him fully smile!

[@donnamcardle8928]

You brought these people from the past to life! It’s chillingly great!

[@JoeVL99]

Why am I crying over this? So beautifully done

[@corinnerobinson4949]

Nicholas the czar,,very handsome man..❤❤❤

[@RullXov]

Edgar Allan Poe was a genius that lived a short life of bright mornings and dark midnights. Poe became known as the creator of a type of fiction that was difficult to categorize and nearly impossible to imitate. RIP Mr. Poe. ❤🖤💜

[@JaneCrossan]

@RullXov Your words are so eloquently descriptive. It makes me wonder if you might have some writing skills yourself🙂

[@RullXov]

@@JaneCrossan Thanks, but it is mainly things I remember reading from other books. I've read every biography ever written about Poe. I became obsessed with his life story when I was a teen, but I'm not sure why. Possibly from empathy.

[@JaneCrossan]

@RullXov Yes, often teenagers go through a period of being drawn to Gothic themes when they feel displaced from the new and confusing adult world that awaits them. I used to watch Dracula films and scare myself witless. I'm very much older now and never watch anything scary, or read horror stories. 🙂

[@RullXov]

@@JaneCrossan - I'm much older too but still can't wait to see the new movie Nosferatu, directed by Robert Eggers..😁

[@JaneCrossan]

@RullXov I've only seen a clip from the original 1922 silent version (well before my time). That was terrifying. I couldn't watch the new one. I see it's out on New Year's Day 2025 😱

[@STRANGExDAYSx]

Making scenes come alive is beyond amazing ✨

[@FriklFrak1]

I liked them all the most. That was so cool, and I'll be honest a little emotional. To see these people that have influenced my life in a perspective of living people is in all honesty profound. Thank you for this I will remember it for many years.
