A project by Argentine artist Santiago Barros uses artificial intelligence to imagine what the children of those who disappeared during the country's bloody military dictatorship (1976-1983) would look like today. "Seeing them look you in the eyes, it makes you question, it reminds you the horror is still out there, that these people still don't have their real identity and it goes on every day," said Barros, who posts the photos from his project @IAbuelas to Instagram. Mothers and grandmothers of the victims, the Abuelas of Plaza de Mayo, rose to prominence advocating for answers about their loved ones.
