Not to mention that AI has rendered a completely unrecognizable photo of Danton; it's hard to even see a resemblance. AI is certainly the future, but it still has a long way to go. Remove backgrounds, which also uses AI, is amazing many times. Other times, it will botch a photo so badly you can't really figure out how it got it so wrong.
I'm not quite sure they gave the program the right image to alter; this guy was Danton.![]()
This guy is one picture of Danton.
This is the one in Wikipedia:

The AI reconstructed Danton's likely appearance by looking at several portraits.
