In another example of the potential wonders of Artificial Intelligence, we can see how popular Indian cricketers would look if their genders were swapped. An Instagram user used AI technology to generate realistic images which have gone viral.
‘AI swipes the gender of Indian Cricketers,’ the post’s caption reads. The pictures were created using the Midjourney AI, it adds.
The user shared ten AI-generated pictures of star cricketers Virat Kohli, Shubman Gill, MS Dhoni, Hardik Pandya, Gautam Gambhir, Yuvraj Singh, Rohit Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja, Shikhar Dhawan and Rishabh Pant, imagining them as women. He even gave all the cricketers a female name. While Virat Kohli was named Vidya Kohli, Shubam Gill was named Subhadra Gill and Mahendra Singh Dhoni became Mahi Singh Dhoni.
Former cricketer and current BJP Member of Parliament Gautam Gambhir also had gender swapped image rendered, labelled Gautami Gambhir.
The post has generated more than 2,000 likes and several comments. Many users were left amused to see the pictures, while others were in awe of the artwork.
“This made me believe that any man can turn himself into a woman by just using makeup perfectly,” one comment read.
