Look at what MyHeritage has gone and done!
Yes, this is “me,” or rather the Cowgirl version of me that MyHeritage created using artificial intelligence (AI) in their new time machine.
Oh my gosh this is just so doggone much fun.
This literally comes under the category of “I am my ancestors.”
MyHeritage has just introduced a new time machine. You upload between 10 and 25 photos of yourself – and voila!
The AI technology places you in various vintages, and a few minutes later, take a look a the new you.
Or maybe an adventurous you.
I posted this on my social media account last night, VERY late, and my husband told me this morning that he needs to talk to me about what I was doing at the recent conference I attended.
These photos look just that real.
He hasn’t seen anything yet!
Astronaut me.
Punk-rocker me.
Flower child me. That’s it! I’m getting purple-streaked hair!
Which “me” shall I use for my social media profile? Maybe a new one every single day.
I’m uploading one of these as my profile photo at MyHeritage and elsewhere.
Thank you so much, MyHeritage!!!
You can have this much fun too – and it’s free.
Here are the categories I received, but MyHeritage fits your photo to the categories that are best suited. Other people have received different categories that I don’t have and vice versa.
This amazing feature is free, but I suspect MyHeritage places a limit on the number of free images that are generated without a subscription. I have a full subscription, so I’ll be experimenting with photos of family members. This might just make a fun holiday collage or maybe print these and use them as table place cards or gift package name tags. Wouldn’t that be fun!
Update: If you’re using the free version, meaning you’re not signed in as a member:
- I suggest leaving that browser window open so you’ll know when the images are ready, in case you don’t receive the email.
- Download the images if you like them, because if you don’t and need to do it later, you’ll need to pay the $9.95 for 20 themes which is 160 images.
If you need a subscription, you can subscribe with a 14-day free trial here. There’s far more there than just these cool photos, but today is officially “I am my ancestor day.”
Take your bad self over to MyHeritage and try the time machine, here. Which new you do you like best?
