Photographer Alper Yesiltas uses artificial intelligence to ‘resurrect’ stars who died young

Using artificial intelligence and editing software, photographer Alper Yesiltas has resurrected stars who died when they were young.

The Turkey-based photographer, who created the portraits for a project titled ‘As If Nothing Happened,’ said ‘’With the development of AI technology, I’ve been excited for a while, thinking that anything imaginable can be shown in reality.’’

Sharing the haunting and realistic images on his Instagram handle, Yesiltas said ‘’When I started tinkering with technology, I saw what I could do and thought about what would make me the happiest. I wanted to see some of the people I missed again in front of me and that’s how this project emerged.’‘.
