What would the Mona Lisa look like if painted by Leonardo Da Vinci in the 21st century? Artificial intelligence (AI) has just answered this question.
The mysterious woman in the Mona Lisa has a new appearance
Today, the enigmatic woman would have larger blue eyes, a smaller nose, more defined eyebrows, less pronounced cheekbones, and an alluring neckline. This transformation has sparked significant interest in the online community after being shared on the X (Twitter) and Reddit platforms, generating much debate in the comments on both social media.
Could this be the Mona Lisa of the 21st Century?
A large number of users were shocked by the changes made to the mysterious woman, even questioning the “intelligence” of AI. Other users took a more humorous approach, joking that with this image, they no longer felt threatened by this emerging technology.
However, this is not the first time Leonardo da Vinci’s painting has been the target of AI usage. Earlier this year, the technology generated a landscape around the mysterious woman. Nonetheless, this effort also sparked controversy and was not well-received by social media users. Most people agreed that this image revealed more limitations of AI rather than its capabilities and potential.
This would be the background of the original Mona Lisa created by AI.
Others also noted that Leonardo da Vinci did not intend to depict a landscape but rather to highlight the woman. Perhaps for that reason, the artist did not add any landscape elements.
It seems that social media users prefer the Mona Lisa as Leonardo da Vinci created it. The original painting is displayed at the Louvre in Paris and was painted between 1503 and 1506.
