The latest trend to sweep TikTok involves using artificial intelligence to bring to life different words, phrases, names, and lyrics and it’s all pretty impressive.
Thanks to the advancement of AI technology that allows people to “create” these kind of paintings through the AI-powered mobile app Wombo Art, the TikTok hashtag #AIpainting has more than 12.1m views as people share what words they’ve entered and the subsequent work of art the AI app has made.
With Christmas just around the corner, there’s nothing better than kicking back and getting cosy to watch our favourite festive films on repeat - and with more than 1,000 Christmas movies, there’s plenty to choose from.
