Google’s Art Selfie 2 Tool Can Transform Your Photos into Paintings
Jan. 26, 2024If you ever wonder what you would look like in a Renaissance painting or as an astronaut in space, you must try out the Art Selfie 2 AI tool that you can find within the Google Arts & Culture app.
Itcreates a stylized image around your face to match the style you have chosen. It only alters your hair, head, coverings, jewelry, and other apparel. Your face, however, stays the same. It even shows trivia related to the style as it processes your image, which I found to be quite engaging.
To use this tool, download the Google Arts & Culture app on yourAndroidoriOSdevice, then head to thePlaytab from the bottom navigation bar andtap on Art Selfie 2to start using it.
To take another selfie just tap onRetake, and if you are not satisfied with the result, you can tap on therefresh icon. If you like the image, you can proceed toshare or downloadthe image.
As for privacy, your selfie stays with Google and only you or the people you have shared them with. I feel like this is an interesting attempt by the company to teach users about history as well as other cultures. The results might not turn out to be perfect, but they are well worth a try.
