The neural network showed what Giacomo Casanova really looked like! you wouldn’t fall for him
Giacomo Casanova was born in Venice in 1725. His father was an actor and his mother was a dancer. There were six children in the bohemian family. Giacomo was the firstborn. The boy grew up in a free atmosphere.
Although Venice was Catholic, brothels and gambling houses flourished on its reverse side, and there were also pleasure tours for tourists.
The boy’s mother was an actress and toured a lot. His father died when he was eight years old. Casanova was raised by her grandmother, but one day she decided to send the boy to a boarding school. Giacomo took this as a betrayal.
There, the young Casanova lived so badly that his music teacher and priest Gozzi took him to him. In addition to Giacomo, the priest also had a daughter, Betty, who showed the 12-year-old boy the «adult» world. Then the future seducer of women entered the University of Padua.
After graduating at the age of 17, the young Italian was faced with a choice: follow in the footsteps of a lawyer or go to the doctors. As a result, he became an alchemist, sorcerer, spy, writer, creator of a clever financial scheme for enrichment and a great seducer.
However, Giacomo Casanova never hid that women are his real element, the meaning of life, which he never regretted.
Until the end of his days, he adhered to the only rule — to see in every woman seduced by him, something special, which no one could see. Except for him, the great and terribly charming lover of Giacomo Casanova.
But, despite all the exploits and 130 influential women seduced throughout his life, the man did not have an attractive appearance. Dark skin, an aquiline nose and a high forehead did not make Giacomo the first handsome man, but it was his attitude that attracted women so much.
The neural network decided to recreate the image of Casanova, and showed how it could look in reality.
It turned out that Giacomo could not differ much from his image in the paintings of Venetian artists. The neural network presented him as a tall (which was true), lean, dark-skinned man with sharp features, languid eyes and long curly hair.
It would be extremely difficult to believe in his honesty, and his appearance was even a little repulsive and frightening.
