Comparison 1. SM Post Autopsy V SM AI
Comparison 2. Version of Young Adult Carl Webb with an AI Middle-aged Version of Carl Webb:
Pm the left is the young Carl Webb as per the ABC TV published image, you'll note that the teeth in this image show a distinct 'overbite' which is similar to the Somerton Man.
Comparison 3. Middle Age:
Carl Webb Vs SM AI Version
In the above image, you can see in the left image an AI version of the middle-aged Carl Webb, and on the right is the 'Live' version of the Somerton Man taken from the post-autopsy photograph
Comparison 4. AI Young Adult SM with Middle Age SM:
This final image above shows an AI version of the Somerton Man. I used an age regressing package to 'wind back' the age of the image on the right. To my knowledge, this is the first time an image that represents the Somerton Man as he might have looked in his mid-20s has been published. The image of the younger version of the man shows that he has a dimpled chin, which is not present in the older version. Dimpled chins are quite common and can last a lifetime but not always. In this case, that dimple was created by AI.
SUMMARY
Comparison 1. This shows the Live version of the Somerton Man and it appears to show significant likeness and is in my view probably quite accurate.
Comparison 2. Show the young adult as in mid 20s, Carl Webb compared to a middle-aged, as in early to mid-40s version of Carl Webb. Again, you can see the resemblance between the two and is probably reasonably accurate.
Comparison 2. Show the young adult as in mid 20s, Carl Webb compared to a middle-aged, as in early to mid-40s version of Carl Webb. Again, you can see the resemblance between the two and is probably reasonably accurate.
Comparison 3. Shows the middle aged Carl Webb to the AI version of the Somerton Man, there is little resemblance between them/
Comparison 4. Shows an AI created young adult version of the Somerton Man alongside a 'live' version of the Somerton Man.

Proven AI tools have been used to create many of these images, and every effort has been made to ensure that we arrived at a set of images that represented the truth of the matter. I believe we've got the balance right, but we must bear in mind that whilst the AI tools used are proven in the field, AI is still relatively young in terms of applications.
