In plain words
Colorizing Infrared Images with AI, Using Photoshop and DeOldify is an AI tool that applies color to infrared photographs through integration with Photoshop and the DeOldify algorithm. It is designed for photographers and image professionals who work with thermal or infrared imagery and need to add realistic color information. The tool stands out by combining Photoshop's editing capabilities with DeOldify's AI colorization model to automate what would otherwise be a manual process.

Colorizing 850NM IR images with Machine Learning works better than expected, and Photoshop does much worse than expected. I really enjoy the look of infrared images in black and white - the clouds have much more contrast, the effect of the apthoshere is reduced so the image is sharper, and many things absorb and reflect IR light differently. One question I have had for awhile is if a dedicated monochrome image sensor - one with no bayer filter - would have accepable color resolution when using AI to colorize the image. One easy way to try this out was Photoshop's newish neural filters, one of which is colorization. I am not sure what algorithm they use specifically, but I do like the fact…from blog.maxg.io

I made a new AI colorizer2022 · palette.fm · ▲472Hi HN, I’m Emil, the maker behind Palette. I’ve been tinkering with AI and colorization for about five years. This is my latest colorization model. It’s a text-based AI colorizer, so you can edit the colorizations with natural language. To make it easier to use, I also automatically create captions and generate filters. Let me know what you think. You can see some of my results on my reddit page: https://www.reddit.com/user/emilwallner/?sort=top

Hey HN, I've been working on https://pornpen.ai, a site for generating adult images. Please only visit the site if you are 18+ and willing to look at NSFW images. This site is an experiment using newer text-to-image models. I explicitly removed the ability to specify custom text to avoid harmful imagery from being generated. New tags will be added once the prompt-engineering algorithm is fine-tuned further. If the servers are overloaded, take a look at the feed and search pages to look through past results.
