This person does not exist: A random photo-realistic face generator

Why does trashtalking fictional characters feel so wrong? :X3:

Probably because the AI algorithm that generates these fictional faces, does a very good job at it.

Just think how easy it might be to create a bogus scenario of some sort...In real life,
utilizing this technology, some might say that it is already happening. :oops:


But for now...It's kind of fun creating ridiculous scenarios of pure fiction.

;)

So if someone makes false "missing person" notes, people will just keep wasting their time. We could do this manually in 1995 though.

To what end though?

I have witnessed how CGI has made up bogus stories used for fake news.

So, AI is being used to create false people and circumstances....?

I'm not surprised anymore.

I shut off the TV and News media a long time ago.

We used to give people rabbit teeth or blue skin for jokes in the 1990s. Clone stamps in GIMP and Photoshop only have one layer in the non-convolutional kernel causing a direct linear fade overwriting details. Deep fakes are better at fading between patterns using small convolutional kernels describing how an edge or corner should be preserved in the texture. The face generator might rely on max pooling or a similar generalization to connect wrinkles with skin area descriptions.

I agree with you Windy regarding switching off TV and News Media...The BBC has been continually pumping out socialistic agenda`s for decades, and now they are in trouble and having to sack lots of overpaid underworked staff...The BBC has been receiving almost £4 BILLION pounds annually from their licence fee ($5.46 BILLION dollars!!)

The general public has been annually paying nearly £150 licence fee, but now hundreds of thousands of people have been cancelling their BBC licence and thousands of other simply not paying that money anymore, including myself...For £4 billion pounds the UK could build its own Large Hadron Collider!!, and purchase some of my own TimeFlipper approved and patented devices!! :LOL: ;)

That's called commercial interests. Rightwing news get oil money. Leftwing news get government money. Both must support the hand feeding them.

Thanks for the reply...It wasn`t Government money actually, it was Tax Payers money directly funding the BBC...Now i`m off topic..Gone :oops:

Called "independent" funding when people are forced to pay but politicians set the content rules. :sarcasm: Swedish news channels change values whenever a new party takes control, so no news are truly independent.
 
Finally got one with a glitch! Scratch that, 2 glitches.

1. There's a big booger under the sunglasses.
2. Look at how distorted the landscape is, in the bottom left part of the photo. It's Mona-Lisa-level stuff! lol Probably a texture mapping issue, though.
