This Algorithm That Can Turn Videos Of Snow To Summer Is Messing With Our Heads

​A team of Nvidia researchers recently presented an algorithm that trained itself to turn video clips of snowy roads in clips of those same roads… in the middle of summer. It's unnervingly convincing: 

Of course, the algorithm isn't quite perfect — for instance, it struggles to render the house on the right here:

But still, if you just showed us the summer version and didn't tell us it was algorithmically-generated from a winter scene… we'd probably believe you. Which is really impressive.
