So far, yeah you wanted to see yourself as if you were a character from the past, you had three options: dress up, edit an image or use a filter. The former required time and dedication, while the latter almost never delivers quality results.
Now, thanks to artificial intelligence, it is much easier to see how your style would have been in different periods of history. How? With multiple photos and AI Time Machinewhich will turn you into a Roman, a Viking, a cowboy and even a silent movie star in a matter of minutes.
How does AI Time Machine work to take you back in time?
AI Time Machine is an artificial intelligence created by MyHeritage, a genealogy software development company, which takes you on a journey through different periods of history, with you being the protagonist. Time Machine is based on the Stable Diffusion model, one of the most powerful image-generating AIs today. Taking that into account, you can expect a fantastic result.
What does AI Time Machine do? First, it asks you to upload between 10 and 25 of yours from different angles and distances (portrait, full length, medium shot, etc.); then processes them to generate your model image, which will be used to create thematic photos; Finally, you can select between 50 different themes to generate your historical image.
Some things you should know about this AI? These:
- It is not mandatory to upload all photos. Nevertheless, the more images from different perspectives you upload and use better quality photosthen the results will be better.
- Creating your base model is not a quick processit can easily take between 30 and 90 minutes.
- The paid version allows you to create one model per user account. It’s compatible with 50 historical themes and you can generate up to 400 images.
- The free version will only allow you to generate 40 images themes per user, starting from a single model per account.
How varied is the AI Time Machine theme offer? We are not going to list all the available options, but some of them are: Roman soldier, Greek aristocrat, 50s hunk, viking, cowboy, chinese feudal emperor, renaissance french nobleman, astronautGeneral of Conquest, Egyptian Emperor, and tons of other alternatives.
