I had this vision that one day we'll be able to reconstruct memories from our past by taking old photos and having a ML model collate everything together to form a 3D rendering of that point in time. It seems like you have gotten most of the way there.
The next step would be to have the user grab a VR headset and immerse themselves in their favorite childhood moment. One could even add avatars for loved ones using again ML-generated audio based on recordings of their voices.
Your project made me think that it wouldn't be that interesting for me to view your memories, so perhaps the best initial step for a proof-of-concept that would allow the technology to mature would be to recreate historical moments so everyone people could relive them – and they could do so entirely virtually, from the comfort of their own couch. Side note: it feels like this technology can disrupt traditional museums with the added bonus of being pandemic-proof.
Anyway, I don't really have a question... Just wanted to compliment you on this amazing work and throw this idea out there in case others want to think about it, as I'm in an entirely different field and don't have the skills and resources to make it real, and I do strongly feel this will inevitably come to life.
