What the historical Jesus Christ could have looked like has been a topic of discussion among theologians and historians for about two thousand years.
The Catholic Church and Renaissance artists frequently depict the Son of God as a tall, massive European with long, blond hair and piercing blue eyes.
However, the majority of historians concur that a carpenter’s son born in contemporary Palestine would have the same physical traits as the locals of that era: a shorter, stockier body, and curly black hair.
However, cutting-edge artificial intelligence technology used by a Dutch photographer and digital artist may have finally put an end to the argument.
Bas Uterwijk, a specialist in algorithmic picture synthesis, produced a magnificent image of Jesus using Artbreeder’s machine-learning features.
His “historically accurate” portrayal of the Messiah contrasts sharply with images of the Messiah found in Western art and religious texts.
Mr. Uterwijk stated, “I have a background in Computer Generated Images and Special Effects.
“The artificial intelligence software utilizes a neural network trained on photographs and paintings of thousands of human faces.
