The tech uses a driver video to animate the photo - mapping facial features from the photo onto that base driver to create a “live portrait”, as D-ID calls it. It released a demo video of the newer, photo-animating technology last year. The facial animation feature is powered by Israeli company D-ID, a TechCrunch Disrupt battlefield alum - which started out building tech to digitally de-identify faces with an eye on protecting images and video from being identifiable by facial recognition algorithms. Looking at the inquisitive face of my great-grandmother I do have to wonder what she would have made of all this? The face animation technology itself is impressive enough - if you set aside the ethics of encouraging people to drag their long-lost relatives into the uncanny valley to help MyHeritage cross-sell DNA testing (with all the massive privacy considerations around putting that kind of data in the hands of a commercial entity).

Unlimited access to MyHeritage’s ‘deep nostalgia’ feature - plus a bundle of other services such as photo enhancement - also carries a monthly fee (though your first few nostalgia hits are free). private equity firm for ~$600 million - is doubtless relying on the deep pull of nostalgia to smooth over any individual misgivings about handing over data and agreeing to its terms. The company - which, as we reported earlier this week, is being acquired by a U.S. MyHeritage breach exposes 92M emails and hashed passwords In 2018 MyHeritage also suffered a major data breach - and data from that breach was later found for sale on the dark web, among a wider cache of hacked account info pertaining to several other services. Last year, for example, the Norwegian Consumer Council reported MyHeritage to the national consumer protection and data authorities after a legal assessment of the T&Cs found the contract it asks customers to sign to be “incomprehensible”. Both of which have attracted a number of concerns over the years.

It’s free to animate a photo using the “deep nostalgia” tech on MyHeritage’s site, but you don’t get to see the result until you hand over at least an email (along with the photos you want animated, ofc) - and agree to its T&Cs and privacy policy. (Selling DNA tests is their main business.) Very odd.MyHeritage’s AI-powered viral marketing playbook with this deepfakery isn’t a complicated one: They’re going straight for tugging on your heart strings to grab data that can be used to drive sign-ups for their other (paid) services. I wanted to enhance the image with MyHeritage’s enhancer and then make an animation, but this blurry mess is what I got. This is the original image and the animation I got from it: He was a soldier who died in combat during World War I.
Then, I downloaded this photo of Emile Henri Pied from Europeana’s gallery. So, to show you the result, also used a photo of my very alive self, and here’s what it turned out: I don’t have a permission from my mom, auntie, and uncle, and the animated photo of my late granny freaks me out. In this article, though, I won’t upload the animations. Other than my gramps, the AI recognized and animated everyone else in the photo. So when you upload photos, make sure that people’s faces are turned towards the camera. It’s worth noting that Deep Nostalgia didn’t recognize my grandpa’s face, most likely because his head is turned to the side. The one on the left is my mom, by the way. It shows my late grandma and grandpa, and their three children who are all, thankfully, alive and well. I just recently downloaded this photo to my computer, so I thought I could use it first. I already have it because I tested Photo Enhancer a while ago, so I logged in to try out Deep Nostalgia. If you’d like to test out the tool, you need to have a MyHeritage account. In these videos, people seem as if they’re looking around before they strike a pose for the camera. It rather wants to turn your old photos into animated videos to help you “connect” more with your ancestors. However, the point of Deep Nostalgia isn’t to select the perfect shot like Live Photos or create an animation from a video. I’ve never found a purpose for it, but that’s a different topic. I have something similar on my Huawei phone and I can take an “animated photo” of some sort. Gizmodo compares it to the Live Photos feature in iOS and iPadOS. As the name suggests, Deep Nostalgia relies on deep learning to turn your still images into animated videos.
