  • ► What Historical Figures Might Look Like If They Lived Today
    ► Hello everyone and welcome back to Mystery Scoop. An artist uses AI tools to create a modern version of historical figures.
    Have you ever wondered what historical figures might look like if they lived today? Well, a digital artist named Hidreley Diao, from Brazil, had a similar question and he used modern AI tools to figure it out. He created a realistic depiction of some of history's most iconic figures, capturing their main facial characteristics, while keeping in mind that if they lived in this day and age, modern lifestyle would have created a slightly twisted version of them. Let's have a look at a few amazing examples of his work, bringing historical figures to life, with a little AI animation thrown in the mix.
    Please check the video to see historical figures AI recreated as modern people today. Let us know which AI reconstructed face you liked most!

    What's so interesting about this project is that it really strips away all the "myth" of these (in)famous historical figures. There's so much iconography and legendary status associated with them that they almost feel "beyond human" at times, but then you put on some modern clothes and give them a modern haircut and you realize that they're just, well, people. Extraordinairy people, sure, but still people whose lives could be just as boring and mundane as ours. If they'd end up in the modern age, you'd have to do very little appearance-wise to help them blend in. Which is fascinating.

      @@The_OneManCrowd True, but because of that power or genius, you often forget that they were just people in their own right. We remember the inventions, the power moves, the extremely good and the extremely bad. Which makes it easy to forget that these things only encompassed a very small part of their lives. Even the lives of the great are often mundane on a day to day basis. And it's nice to be reminded of the fact they aren't gods or myths: they were also flawed human beings going on about their day.

    The AI didn't get all of the face shapes, noses, ears and mouth shapes right. Like Mary Queen of Scots for example. Her face was longer, as was her nose, in the old painting. The AI is apparently trying to positively idealize the faces. Accuracy is better than an idealized version. However, some of the AI portraits were Very good.

      Exact nose, lip and ear shapes which an artist might've altered but are hallmarks for accuracy were often ignored. Some other portraits of Henry VIII are more accurate, such as the one of him in three-quarter profile by Holbein; there's a different looking nose in it anyway.

Many felt his actual height, combined with his mannerisms left a majestic impression. This portrayal feels more like a washed up old guy at a bar. The sense of discipline and majesty he was known for is just not there.

      Bear in mind that portraits were all idealized. They tell us more about what the beauty standards were in the various time periods than what these people actually looked like in the flesh. This is clearly shown by 'Young Hercules', who is of course a mythological figure. His depiction therefore tells us what contemporaneous people considered to be a handsome young man. Notice how similar Antinous looks to him. The bust is a flattering, possibly near fantastical portrayal of him designed to make him admired.

    Henry VIII: Looks like a high school teacher who probably coaches football after school
    Leonardo Da Vinci: The friendly neighbor whose kids are adults by now, but still lives in the neighborhood where they grew up, and has the best candy on Halloween.
    Joan of Arc: The shy, artsy girl who frequents the local coffee shop. Unassuming, soft-spoken, humble, but damn is she smart.
    Livia Drusilla: A Hollywood leading lady who will one day be one of the grande dames of Hollywood.
    Hadrian: One of the neighborhood dads. Can be counted on to throw or attend backyard barbeques, and will probably spend as much time playing soccer or basketball with the kids as he will grilling.
    Antinous: Heartthrob musician of some sort.
    Mary, Queen of Scots: Wildly funny stand-up comedian and actress.
    Mary Tudor: Local elected official, probably judicial. She's not ambitious, but she takes her job seriously, and she will let her career advance as she sees fit. She wants to be where she can make the most difference.
    George Washington: Spent his younger adulthood working a comfortable white-collar job that allowed him to support his family while still spending time with them. Now he's retired so he can spend his days babysitting his grandchildren.
    Isaac Newton: Actor who is always type-cast as the villain, but is really sweet and charming off-screen.
    Bach: College music professor.
    Beethoven: Star of comedic films.
    Michelangelo: Local street painter, painting portraits in the park.
    Young Hercules: Architect designing the new apartment complex in the area.
    Marcus Aurelius: High school art teacher, part-time singer/songwriter.
    Matau-Tathonca: Star athelete and activist.

      Gaius Iulius was Roman and therefore he came from what is now the Italian region.
      It is therefore assumed that Ceasar had slightly darker skin and brown eyes. It is said he suffered from (early) hair loss. If you now consider all the stress of fighting and politics, he will also has been marked with folds etc.
      By the way Romans were also just 1.60-1.70m tall on average at that time.
      All of this doesn't necessarily make him any less charismatic, but it does set him apart from the "handsome american banker" that the AI ​​picture portrays.
      Aaaaaand...
      it should not be forgotten that hardly any of the exhibited busts were made during Caesar's lifetime. So the only one that really depicts him is the one that was "recently" found in the Rhône in France. And this deviates from the ideal images of the other statues.

The Roman empresses I can see wearing makeup and styling their hair, but not Joan. She would have been function over fashion.

    Congratulations - you've done a great job. Mary Queen of Scots was considered a beauty, and turned a lot of heads, before losing her own. She was kept captive by her cousin Queen Elizabeth I, and that's when that not too flattering portrait of her was done to Elizabeth's instructions. Other portraits of Mary, done by independent sources, show a strikingly beautiful woman.

    • @wardarcade7452
      @wardarcade7452 2 роки тому +52

      Yes, in her youth, the Queen of Scots was a striking beauty. However, decades of captivity,poor health and stress all took their toll. At the time of her death, she had very short, sparse grey/white hair. However, she played one last joke on her captors by covering it up with a long, auburn loose wig for her execution- counting on the executioner to hold up her severed head by her 'hair' which caused her noggin to floor and them having to get on their hands and knees to pick her head back up instead of being able to gloat over having done the deed!

    • @johntonssen7231
      @johntonssen7231 2 роки тому

      The definition of ‘beauty’ changes through history mr, ‘flabby bum’.
      A pale skinned overweight woman with rotten black teeth was once the true sign of beauty. Pale skin meant she never worked outside like a peasant. Overweight meant she could afford to eat whatever she wanted. Black teeth meant she could afford sugar. This is where the British bad teeth comes from, because British royalty could afford sugar and no one else could.
      People were known to blacked their teeth with coal just to appear like they had sugar. Think of it like you photoshopping your instagrams hahah

      @@Starlightndust While Elizabeth may have had some envy over the accounts of the Queen of Scots's stunning beauty in her youth, it paled compared to how much she distrusted the Queen of Scots from having HER (Elizabeth) murdered so SHE could be the new monarch of England (since the Queen of Scots WAS Elizabeth's closest blood relative via the Tudor lineage remaining). Yes, it's true that Queen Elizabeth became VERY upset and had horrible crying jags at the news of the onetime Queen of Scots' execution but it wasn't because she had any affection for her. Contrary to many dramatization, the Queen of Scots and England NEVER met in person! It was because Elizabeth had hinted around for years for the Queen of Scots's jailors/guardians to have the latter quietly murdered in her cell but none of them were willing to do this. Hence, when that became clear, Elizabeth reluctantly ordered her execution . ..but kept hoping the Queen of Scots would still be quietly murdered. However, with the Queen of Scots being executed, Elizabeth knew that since she'd approved a onetime fellow monarch's execution, that meant that SHE could be targeted by other monarchs. ..or even her own subjects. Regardless, Elizabeth left the throne of England to the Queen of Scots' son James VI but she waited until her actual deathbed to give the word. There's some speculation that Elizabeth and James VI may have secretly connived to greenlight Mary's execution to clear the way for James VI eventual succession but there's been no written smoking gun found. Ironically, the Queen of Scots' motto was 'In my End is my Beginning' - and it wound up that EVERY single monarch who has sat on the English and British thrones has been HER descendant while Elizabeth was the last of the Tudors (and she even proclaimed herself 'of barren stock' upon the news of Mary giving birth to James).
