The Next Generation

Over at Bored Panda, an entry shows what artificial intelligence suggests the offspring of famous TV or movie couples might have looked like if they had been real and had children.

The results are interesting, although a couple of the prospective kids look more like each other than they do the fictional parents. The AI program worked on the photos themselves; I can't imagine we're that far off from the same kinds of programs working on the actual genomes of the people involved and creating an image that might result from the combined DNA. Of course, that would involve obtaining DNA from the principals and that might not be such a welcome request from a random stranger creating an Instagram post.

And, you know, sort of creepy.
