The use of AI for modern day graphics
It’s not a secret that humanity is
advancing
exponentially
when
it comes to the technology that
surrounds our everyday life. Giving
solutions to problems that we
would have never solved without
computers, using tools that are only
getting more and more advanced
with the pass of the years. One of
this tools that is shining more than
ever is the Artificial Intelligence
(AI), where its capacities have
already
reached
our
pockets
with personal assistants in our
smartphones. One great use for AIs
is in the field of graphic computing,
with programs using AIs to create
all type of photos, 3d environments
and videos, opening a new world
of possibilities for videogames,
designer, video editors and more.
One interesting project, example of
the use of AIs in graphic computing, is
Impersonator++. This tool is designed
to trace movements of a person
in a mp4 video and transfer their
movement to a photo of someone
else creating a completely new video
