I can see AI being used to beef up the older cloth, hair, and face room stuff. I almost wonder if AI can be used for what used to be called "universal poses." The only caveat with that is there are so many different bone hierarchies used in Poser figures (which was part of the reason "Universal Poses" didn't always work.)

Not to post a render from "the other software" to create an argument, but the new Face Transfer 2 for DS does use AI in part for generating the morph and texture. It does a pretty decent job. Here's an example of G9 using Face Transfer and some additional face morph tweaking. I think "key" here, though, is starting off with a base figure that is more generic than stylized. It only works with G9, which is basically a blank slate for both male and female characters.

I'd love to see Poser moving forward again to recapture and surpass the magic it had in its prime.
