This A.I. Turns Celebrities Into Kids And Let's Us Get A Peek At What They May Have Looked Like Back Then
Childhood photos are something that many of us love looking back on just to admire how things have changed. Not everyone has these childhood photos or some are just not accessible to everyone.
Like celebrities, for example, they don't exactly have their baby photos blasted all over the internet like we see their press and paparazzi photos. That's why this person decided it would be awesome to test out some of these AI apps.
Nowadays we have apps that can make you look older or younger or give you dog ears. Some photo filters can really freak you out by how real they look.
Well, these celebrity childhood photos were created using an AI app mostly by a curious soul who wanted to see what they would look like as children without having to scour the internet to find a celebrity baby photo. This person too 21 different well-known celebrities to see what they'd look like as children.
Most of the celebrities used in this list already do have some baby photos on the internet so it's a good comparison experiment as well to see just how good these AI apps did with making them look like a younger version of themselves.
If you've ever used an AI app then you know how cool, but also creepy they can be. I mean isn't it wild how accurate they can be with making us look younger or older just using technology.

What do you think about these AI photos? Some of them definitely could've gotten away with being mistaken for a real childhood photo of these celebrities, but some couldn't pass honestly.
