Photo Editing With AI

Ariel set a challenge to make some pictures taken of her last year match those from 2012.

On 3 Mar 2026 Kevin explained how he completed this test with the help of ComfyUI, two AI models called ‘Z-Image-Turbo’, and ‘Qwen2512’ and some help from LoRA.

Here are some AI Videos that Kevin found helpful while he was doing this.
