Sadly, many actors, singers, and celebrities leave this world way too soon. Many fans feel heartbroken and mourn their passing for a long time. Even though they are no longer with us, they will always be in our hearts and memories. Not to mention the legacy and beauty they left behind: movies, songs, and a great impact on people, culture, and sometimes the whole world.

I decided to take artificial intelligence apps and Photoshop and see if I can revive these celebrities to see what they would look like if they were with us today. Artificial intelligence is, of course, far from perfect. Some of these images look quite creepy, some don't change the celebrity that much.

Most of you probably know what artificial intelligence is. It has become very popular over the past years, with a lot of artists, programmers, and even businesses starting to use it. This new technology will probably be incorporated further and further into our lives. A.I. would lessen human error, take risks instead of humans, always be ready to work and would never get tired, and many other helpful things.

Steve Irwin

However, there are some downsides if A.I. was incorporated into everyday life. Many say that humans would become too lazy. Using A.I. in work would result in a lot of human unemployment. The A.I. will never be as creative and emotional as humans. Also, with deepfakes becoming more and more used and popular, people fear that their identities would be stolen.

Would not have aged that well unless he changed his lifestyle.

I have created many articles using artificial intelligence previously on Bored Panda. Here's an article where I use A.I. to see what the kids of fictional couples would have looked like. If you're more interested in real couples, here's what the kids of famous ex-couples would have looked like if they'd stayed together. I also turned these 20 celebrities from the ’80s & ’90s into kids again. A.I. is a powerful and fun tool!

I honestly believe that she would not have looked this old at 60. Not by far.

He would be much more handsome and young looking. Like Pharell or Keanu, this pic would be the 80 years old Tupac.

Not to forget the shitload of plastic surgery. I honestly think he would look even worse by now, body dismorphia doesn’t just stop.

He'd have had yet more surgery. He looked terrible when he was alive, I think he may have suffered from body dysmorphia and plastic surgeons took advantage of this rather than refuse to carry out these excessive procedures..

OMG I nearly choked on my toast. He looks like he is from a horror movie. Not that he didn't back then too. I liked his music though.

Who could possibly guess what he would have looked like now? He had so much plastic surgery before he died, and I don't imagine that would have stopped, if he had lived.

I was fearing this one. To be honest, had he lived through 2020 he would surely have had his whole head covered with a facemask.

I screamed/yelled/let out a sound. It was horrible. Actualky tossed my phone and turned my head. All unvoluntary. I had to have help scrolling down to not see it again. I don't even react that hard to a pic of a spider.

Okay I see a lot of comments saying things like "scary" and "even creepier than his actual look" and while i agree that the hair in this picture is not the most flattering, if he wanted to be like that then let him do his thing. If it makes him happy, I'm fine with it. Please stop calling him scary.
