AI can generate photos of almost anything you dream up, and it’s only getting better.
The U.S. Sun asked Microsoft’s Bing AI to imagine what real-life versions of famous cartoon characters would look like in an iPhone selfie.

We put the Microsoft image creator to work, generating dozens of images in just a few minutes.
But can you tell who each of the characters is? Answers at the bottom.
AI image creators are extremely clever.
They generate completely new images based on text prompts.
Image AI models are typically trained on huge sets of images and captions to understand how they’re related.
So when you ask for something like a cartoon dog driving a car, it knows exactly what you’re hoping to see.
The Microsoft Bing image creator uses an AI model called DALL-E.
It was created by OpenAI, and will generate a set of images matching the prompt that you write.
In this case, Bing was asked to create real-world iPhone selfies of famous cartoon characters.
The Bing AI image generator is totally free to use here.
There’s no waiting list, so anyone can give it try today.
You’ll get better results if you give the AI more information.
“It works best when you’re highly descriptive,” Microsoft explains.
“So, get creative and add details: adjectives, locations, even artistic styles such as ‘digital art’ and ‘photorealistic’.”
Sometimes the AI will make mistakes – an image may have flaws, or not really show what you asked for.
But they’re getting smarter all the time, so the quality of these images will only increase in the future.
