THIS is one outcome The Simpsons' creators were not able to predict.

Using AI and photo retouching, an artist has reimagined the cartoon characters of The Simpsons as real-world humans.

Hidreley Diao, a regular contributor to the site Bored Panda, said he wanted to challenge himself to use software Photoshop, FaceApp, Gradiente and Remini to re-imagine if our favorite animated friends stepped out of our screens and joined the human species.

“This post inadvertently brought back some good memories from my childhood,” Diao told Bored Panda.

“Like every kid in my generation, I loved watching cartoons. I really loved the Simpsons and Hanna Barbera classics, and I can safely say that they’ve made a huge impact on my life.”

He created 23 animated characters as humans, including Disney and Pixar characters, from Peter Pan and Elsa to Up's Carl Fredricksen.

And fans of the show have opinions on the real-life interpretations.

"1) Marge is hot. 2) In the film Ned Flanders will be played by Taron Egerton. 3) Mo IS Andy Serkis," one user tweeted.

"Marge is so wrong! The whole point about her is that she is a cutie with weird hair and Homer is very lucky to have such a lady. It's pretty obvious in the episodes she has her hair down. Not impressed," said one fan on Reddit.

On the same thread, one Reddit-user wrote, "Stupid sexy Flanders," and another "Lisa looked like early teen scarlet Johansson and Apu looks like bizarro Jeff Goldblum."
