Milan Jaram is a talented artist who expresses his creativity in a number of ways. He creates traditional art like paintings and illustrations, designs books and magazine covers, and does visual effects and digital art. However, it was his recent collaboration with Artificial Intelligence that really put him on the map, at least in terms of popularity on social media.
Intrigued by the possibilities of Artificial Intelligence in art, Jaram decided to give AI various art-related tasks and see what it would come up with. He uploads the results on his TikTok account, and they are usually nothing short of impressive. This is especially the case with the tasks in which AI reimagines pop culture characters as real people.
So far, Jaram tasked AI to bring to life the characters of The Simpsons, South Park, Sailor Moon, and various other pop culture staples, and each time the AI delivered. While sometimes disturbing, these reimaginations are usually spot on, and you can easily recognize each character.
“The idea for this series came to me from trying to be creative with AI, pushing its limits and seeing what it could do,” Jaram shared in a recent interview.
