AI imagines how historical figures such as JESUS and Cleopatra would look if they'd taken SELFIES

A gallery of realistic images shows selfies taken at The Last Supper and in Cleopatra's court No living human can imagine what it was like to sit at The Last Supper or stand in Cleopatra's court, but AI has provided us with a look at these epic events - and from a first-person perspective. A freelance film editor recently shared a gallery of realistic images showing historical figures snapping selfies, the result of months spent working out a formula of prompts, language and photographic elements. In The Last Supper selfie, Jesus's and some of the apostles' eyes are misshapen, along with one man in the front who has just four fingers Similar mistakes are spotted in Cleopatra's selfie, where the people have either too many or too few fingers, which seems to be the downfall among AI-generated images He added: 'You can ask AI to be historically accurate and then it can reference anything, anywhere, everywhere - that's the beauty of it. Duncan said: 'This technology could be used in schools as a new way of teaching and engaging kids with world history - it's like time traveling without a time machine. Other than the fake stylish Pope, the AI was used to show former US President Donald Trump being arrested in New York City Dr Tim Stevens, director of the Cyber Security Research Group at King's College London, said deepfake AI - which can create hyper-realistic images and videos of people - has the potential to undermine democratic institutions and national security.
