MIT’s new tool erases anything (or anyone) from old photos

This sounds an awful lot like the plot of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

Via Fast Company:

Dubbed Deep Angel, it’s an AI that lives inside a simple-to- use website, which will scan photos you upload, or even your Instagram feed, for people, dogs, cats, snowboards, bowls, buses, traffic lights, pizzas, and teddy bears, to name a few, and automatically erase those things from your photos, according to your wishes.

In my testing, I found that Deep Angel has a tendency to nuke photos, often leaning toward complete ruination rather than coy manipulation. But of course, like all AI, these systems will continue to get better. It’s why Adobe is using more and more AI in its own products.

Soon, you really will be able to say “delete Mark from all my photos,” and preserve those moments as otherwise pristine photographic memories.
