Peter Pan — Disney’s Peter Pan

17+ Cartoons Come to Life With Artificial Intelligence Technology — Image source: Instagram Hidreley

Peter Pan is best known as that quirky little character that managed to fly all over the movie screen as he fought off those evil pirates. The original animators needed to design an image that would portray the expressive and energetic Peter Pan; they were very successful in their efforts. With huge eyes protected by giant red eyebrows that reached to the sky, Peter was unmistakable. There could be no actual human possessing such over the top features, that is until Hidreley and his AI showed up to bring Mr. Pan to life.

Ned Flanders — The Simpsons

Ned Flanders is unmistakable as the paranoid, bible thumping landlord to the Simpson family. For Ned, or simply “Flanders” as he is often called, any questioning of the tenets of the “good book” will be met with shock and disbelief. Flanders would just as soon disown his entire family than permit any derision of the bible. With his brushed back hair, side burns, oversized mustache and googly eyes, coming up with a human doppelganger really wasn’t all that difficult for Hidreley and his AI software.

Ariel — The Little Mermaid

Whether she’s swimming around with singing crabs, or dreaming about landing her handsome prince, Ariel was as beautiful and vivacious as she was fun and energetic. This was not an easy task for even the best AI software to duplicate. But, once again, Hidreley achieved giving his girl fiery red hair, big eyes, and adorable freckles. With such a stunner, there isn’t a prince anywhere in the underwater kingdom that would be able to pass her up.

Lisa Simpson — The Simpsons

Can you think of anyone more qualified to torment Bart Simpson than his sister Lisa? At just eight years old, Lisa is a giant in the family and ahead of her time. She loves to do her own thing regardless of any flack she may get. She also moves through the world fearlessly. Her animation character appears bright and full of wonder, with giant eyes and a big, wide smile. While the AI version is a good likeness, the eyes might be a bit too big for a human. With that said, she does look eternally hopeful and comfortable in her own skin.
