In a viral video that left the internet shocked, a new AI app from Microsoft made the iconic Mona Lisa painting sing.
According to the details, Microsoft introduced a breakthrough artificial intelligence (AI) model, VASA-1, capable of creating incredibly realistic videos of talking human faces.
This innovative image-to-video AI model can turn static images of people’s faces into lifelike animations, with synchronized lip movements, facial expressions and head movements that mimic natural human behavior.
A recent demo video showcasing VASA-1’s capabilities has taken social media by storm, leaving users in awe.
The AI-generated video features Leonardo da Vinci’s iconic Mona Lisa lip-syncing to Anne Hathaway’s song “Paparazzi.” The level of realism and attention to detail in the video sparked widespread wonder and curiosity about the potential applications of this technology.
“Microsoft just dropped VASA-1. This AI can make a single image sing and speak from audio reference in an expressive way. Similar to Alibaba’s EMO. 10 wild examples: 1. Paparazzi burned Mona Lisa,” Min Choi captioned the thread.
