This brilliant example of artist use of artificial intelligence: Duncan Thomsen has used AI to create images of what famous historical figures such as Jesus, Cleopatra, Henry VIII, and Queen Elizabeth I would look like if they could take selfies.

He believes he is the first to use AI for this purpose and says the results are “hilarious”. He uses software called Midjourney, through the application Discord, to create the images and believes it could be used to teach world history in schools.
