I think these things are mostly for interest generation articles and possible exhibitions at museums. Artists have been sculpin these things since before the digital age, and while doing it with ML is cool and all, the results aren’t really more historically useful than what the sculptors did. But hey, if it generates interest I don’t see anything wrong with it either.

I wouldn’t be too worried about whether or not people view them as historical renditions. Most layman’s history “renditions” are mostly somewhat made up.
