Each photo has a <strong data-start=\"1922\" data-end=\"1933\"><em data-start=\"1924\" data-end=\"1931\">story<\/em><\/strong>, and it is not always the entire story. A snapshot alone can not transfer the feeling of hugging or the happiness of such a moment. It does not know what the air smelled of, or what the room sounded like. But <strong data-start=\"2143\" data-end=\"2151\"><em data-start=\"2145\" data-end=\"2149\">AI<\/em><\/strong> can fill in those gaps.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-start=\"2177\" data-end=\"2774\">It begins with an <strong data-start=\"2195\" data-end=\"2209\"><em data-start=\"2197\" data-end=\"2207\">analysis<\/em><\/strong> of the picture in patterns, what is on the background, what is happening to the people, and how does the light play with the background of the picture? Then the <strong data-start=\"2371\" data-end=\"2379\"><em data-start=\"2373\" data-end=\"2377\">AI<\/em><\/strong> then extrapolates and imagines the rest. An image of a mountain walk could become a video of the wind blowing through the trees, the birds flying past and you hear the sound of gravel cracking your feet.
