Color black and white images with one click!

If you have a black and white image, you can color it with just one click using an online tool backed by artificial intelligence.

People from the University of California have developed a tool that adds color to black-and-white images to make them look convincing to the human eye. The neural network behind this tool searches the database of thousands and thousands of color images, visually compares them with the image it needs to color, and thus adds color to parts of the image.

Of course, the algorithm does not know what colors are in that picture, but thanks to the acquired "knowledge", it knows how to paint which part. For example, if the picture shows a mountain, a river, and a tree, he will paint the river blue, mountains in, say, brown, and wood in green and brown because he "knows" that these objects have those colors based on previous colored pictures. remembered.

Sometimes the tool is not accurate and it happens to "paint" over the lines, but mostly it gives great results. You can see examples below:
