None of those people really exist.

Designed to Deceive: Do These People Look Real to You? By Kashmir Hill and Jeremy White
Nov. 21, 2020

There are now businesses that sell fake people. On the website Generated.Photos, you can buy a “unique, worry-free” fake person for $2.99, or 1,000 people for $1,000. If you just need a couple of fake people — for characters in a video game, or to make your company website appear more diverse — you can get their photos for free on ThisPersonDoesNotExist.com. Adjust their likeness as needed; make them old or young or the ethnicity of your choosing. If you want your fake person animated, a company called Rosebud.AI can do that and can even make them talk.

These simulated people are starting to show up around the internet, used as masks by real people with nefarious intent: spies who don an attractive face in an effort to infiltrate the intelligence community; right-wing propagandists who hide behind fake profiles, photo and all; online harassers who troll their targets with a friendly visage.

We created our own A.I. system to understand how easy it is to generate different fake faces.
The A.I. system sees each face as a complex mathematical figure, a range of values that can be shifted. Choosing different values — like those that determine the size and shape of eyes — can alter the whole image.....

the technology in this area has been advancing very quickly and its now used in video manipulation too. You basically can't trust anything anymore

in like 20 years we will create a new species of human that has not been the result of natural selection and 4 billion years of evolution, its mental to think but its out there

Games will be photorealistic within a couple of decades, so you will have AI generated people who do not exist, never have existed, yet look like actual video footage of a real person walking around, talking and communicating with you.

Sometimes I do wonder if it would be harder to shoot a character in a game who looks and sounds like a real human being. The ethical implications ARE sort of interesting once you actually venture all the way across the uncanny valley.

If I bought a ps5, would I be able to walk about in a game like fable or res evil with my face on a body unlike mine?

Not yet Parmy. I'd say by maybe PS7 or PS8 though - so sometime in the 2030's would be my bet.

No complaints here Parmy, muddling through lockdown 2.0. but I have a lazy-arse job I can do from right here on the PC so I can't whinge too much.

Normally with CGI faces I think "yeah they look quite real, but something's not quite right?" but with those, they just look like photos as far as I'm concerned... and that makes it creepier, somehow :laugh:

It's easier because they're still images, usually when things start moving is when you get that "off" feeling that something isn't quite right.

Just wait until the catfishes get their hands on this tech though :worry:.

"They're using someone else's pictures, let's find out who the real person in the photographs is..."

"NOPE they don't exist lol!"

GoldHeart 22-11-2020 01:35 PM

The funny thing is catfish fool people with obvious stolen photos of real people, they don't need to use these CGI photos.

The amount of things I've seen where it's clearly a model or celeb image ,yet people are gullible enough to believe it :rolleyes: :facepalm: .

I did that to catch the TL. I used one of Danny Dyer. The downside is i have been having to speak all cockney like for the past 3 years.

In the end it did not work as the TL and I are sadly no more

Get your own, better dogs LT. Train them to do amazing tricks and then walk past the house, making everyone jealous.
