Many
of us over a certain age don't have any "home movies" of ourselves from
when we were young and just handfuls of photos, not like the hundreds
or thousands that parents take of their kids today. Imagine if you could
turn your photos into home movies?
I've been playing with this AI, video generating online application called Hailuo AI that can turn photos into videos. You might remember Pic Me,
the animated TV series for pre-school kids where a child's face was cut
out and pasted onto an animated body that got up to all sorts of
activities. However this AI technology is light years ahead. Once an
image is uploaded, just like with Dall-E, Bing Image Creator or other AI
image generating application, a text description of what the video
should look like is provided is provided by the user. The application
then effectively "skins" the person in the image and wraps their
outsides around wire frames it can animate.
The results are somewhat mind boggling. Try it on your old school photos.
