Mr. Uterwijk stated, “I have a background in Computer Generated Images and Special Effects.
“The artificial intelligence software utilizes a neural network trained on photographs and paintings of thousands of human faces.
“This application makes it possible to combine multiple sources of faces and merge them in a synthesized version, guided by the artistic decisions of the user. I use it to create historical and fictional characters.
