Artist Uses Artificial Intelligence To Recreate Realistic Versions Of Disney Princesses

An artist known as Toyboyfan took on that idea with a project called In Real Life, using artistic skill and artificial intelligence to recreate Disney princesses from scratch. The results are striking, and they give familiar characters a very different feel.
