Who can be afraid of characters as good-natured as those of Mario Bros., be Mario, Luigi or Toad? Or the adorable princess Peach? Ah, but with this version created by Artificial Intelligence midjourney we can see his most terrifying face, which would have made any enemy tremble.
Nintendo has its emblematic character in Mario: a plumber of Italian origin, big blue eyes, mustache and paunch, closer to Santa Claus than to the protagonist of an action story.
But using Midjourney’s Artificial Intelligence, the digital artist Philip Gonzalez it gave new faces to not only Mario, but his brother Luigi, his sidekick Toad, Princess Peach, and the dinosaur Yoshi.
The result is terrifying and we believe that Bowser collapsed without major complications when he saw them.
Let’s remember that Artificial Intelligence is the attempt to recreate human intelligence in a machine or a program. It is based on machine and deep learning: the algorithm is trained with images that it later uses to generate new ones.
Nowadays Artificial Intelligence it is criticized by many traditional artists, who consider that machines should not do the work intended for human beings. In addition, they criticize that other artists use the algorithm, since for them it is not creation, but generation.

Let’s leave the experts to their quandaries and clashes, and let’s focus on these badass images of Mario Bros., the popular Nintendo video game released in the 80s and which became the most popular of all time.
This is the new image of the adorable Mario, now totally and utterly a street warrior, keeping his mustaches, but ditching his hat and baby bump.
Luigi it also shows that he is not only there to jump, smash and fire, but also to destroy with all possible terror.
this princess Peach she would never have been kidnapped by Bowser, but defeated him in one go.
The scariest of all: Toad. Without another word.
This is how Mario’s faithful “steed” remains, Yoshi, converted by the Midjourney Artificial Intelligence.
