Researchers say AI can mimic human handwriting

With the help of artificial intelligence (AI) tools, people have been able to produce audio and video that is realistic enough. And soon, AI could also be used to mimic a person’s handwriting. Researchers at a university in Abu Dhabi say they have developed technology that mimics someone’s handwriting based on several paragraphs of handwritten material. To do this, researchers at Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence (MBZUAI) used a transformer model, a neural network that traces the relationships between series of data and connects them to context. MBZUAI, which claims to be the world’s first AI university, has received a patent from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for the AI system.
