So this is scary. AI can create people in photos

These Portraits Were Made by AI: None of These People Exist

All 3 of these people do not exist. These pictures are completely AI generated. And they look damn realistic. Too realistic.

Check out these rather ordinary looking portraits. They’re all fake. Not in the sense that they were Photoshopped, but rather they were completely generated by artificial intelligence. That’s right: none of these people actually exist.

NVIDIA researchers have published a new paper on easily customizing the style of realistic faces created by a generative adversarial network (GAN).

The Verge points out that GAN has only existed for about four years. In 2014, a landmark paper introduced the concept, and this is what the AI-generated results looked like at the time:

In less than half a decade, the realism has improved to the point where most people might not be able to tell the portraits are fake, even when examining them up close.

NVIDIA researchers are now able to copy the “styles” of source faces onto destination faces, creating blends that have copied features but which look like entirely new people:

This is some scary shyt.

When they computer generate actual human voices, actors are gonna be financially in a terrible place.

Racist whites will use that to frame black people.

First thing I thought of.
"Isn't this you in the photo with the gun in your hand, Leroy?"

Imagine that with two strangers. You would never know it wasn’t a composite.

But the OP is next level shyt. They making up human beings on the fly. Not just take 2 or 3 pictures and tweak the parameters.

On a side note, how incredible is the human brain that we all looked at that photo and were immediately like, "That's Putin.....and Obama."

Like, the sorts of subtle cues we must be running on to be able to identity both people in the composite is something wild.

Does anyone know if we can identity three people? What does Putin-Obama-Clinton look like?
