Artificial Intelligence will be talked about a lot in 2024, and it could even become a real reason to change your cell phone. Samsung opened the door with the Galaxy S24, which it called an “AI mobile” because of the number of artificial intelligence-based features it has, some of which are really useful.
Samsung is thus following in the footsteps of Google, which with the Pixel 8 demonstrated the possibilities of its algorithms, particularly in terms of photos; The mobile phone is able to eliminate people and objects from our photos, choose the most correct face for the best snapshot and zoom beyond what is possible. But that’s not the only thing AI can do, as Google’s latest release demonstrates.
This is Art Selfie 2, the new version of a feature initially launched in 2018, which has now been improved thanks to artificial intelligence. As its name suggests, it is capable of take a photo of us and edit it to fit us into works of art historical; The new version is even more advanced and is capable of completely transforming us.
The function is integrated into the “Google Arts & Culture” application for Android or iOS, which offers access to all types of arts-related subjects; For example, the application provides access to more than 3,000 cultural collections
Once the application is installed, we can start Art Selfie 2 through a shortcut that appears as soon as we open the application. Its operation is simple: first it will ask us to take a photo with our mobile camera, then it will show us different styles inspired by classic works or historical places. For example, we can make him transform us into a pharaoh, a character from a Shakespeare play, a medieval knight, a Roman gladiator or an astronaut in space.
An important detail is that the application will not modify our face or aspects such as skin color; This is because the app is actually able to detect our profile and crop the background to change it to another one. The only thing that can change about us is our hair (for example, long hair if we have short hair) and the clothes or outfits we wear. However, the effect is very striking and realistic.
