      1/ Colorization of the past is almost necessarily an "art" as there's often no one right answer that can be determined. Sure...there was an actual known truth at some point but you have to ask yourself- is that last 3% worth 30,000% of the research effort?https://twitter.com/citnaj/status/1220503865692344320 …

      I'm treating it more as an aesthetic judgement as opposed to an "absolute truth" judgement. Colorization is an unconstrained problem where some colors simply cannot be determined so yes...comparing to decolorized images it'll often look like ass, honestly.

      2/ So if you're curious that's basically my stance: I care about historical accuracy, but I'm also practical and just want to make cool things and maybe even pretend I'm doing AI art for a bit. If it's pleasing to the eyes- that's a win in my book!

          The new DeOldify looks *very* good. Even the 'mistakes' look natural, like they are a question of lighting, as opposed to mismatched segmentation

          Love your perspective and the project. Now, what did the lunar landing party actually see vs. The video presented to the world within the limited technology of the time?

          Definitely agree. Humans make up reality every day, I don't see why a model should be 100-fold more reliable than them.

          Thank you for sharing this Jason! I suddenly felt a connection to my grandfather, whom I never got to meet, when I saw him in color. (Obvs, that’s little me on the right.) Mind blowing... ❤️pic.twitter.com/fhSYSQUpFP

          I completely agree with your stance on the subjective nature of the outcome. From an academic perspective and commercial application is where you are getting the blowback I suspect. This is an all around awesome use of ML.
