MyHeritage's Deep Nostalgia

This was making the rounds on Twitter: online genealogy platform MyHeritage launched a tool called Deep Nostalgia that animates faces in old family photos. According to the company’s blog, it was used to animate over 10 million faces in its first week of being live. As with many visual deep-learning-powered features, there is a free version with watermarks, as well as a premium version as part of a paid MyHeritage subscription. The model behind Deep Nostalgia is licensed from D-ID, a startup that makes live portrait, talking heads, and video anonymization products.
