| I found a use for face-swapping recently, when working with
| Stable Diffusion animations. The main challenge there is keeping
| the frames consistent between each other. Generating a face and
| then face-swapping it on the full animation helps with the
| consistency.

| Author here, sorry about that :(

| Such software attract all kind of people including the casuals
| who end up creating github issues for problems that can be
| solved with a single google search or reading the docs. I got
| tired of multiple issues regarding ffmpeg and ended up dropping
| this in there. Not very proud.

| Since there's an onnx model this should be possible to export to

| This gets really spicy when it can be adapted to run realtime

| of Tiktoks are now an endless goldmine for scammers...

| On the other hand, since you mentioned Teams, I foresee some

| For this you can already use a prerecorded video as a

| Actually I think making this kind of AI easier to access is a

|
| If every 12yo asshole kid flood the internet with deepfakes,
| then people will actually realize that anybody can fake a
| video, and stop believing everything they see, which will
| greatly reduce the potential for misinformation/harassment/the
| spread of false rumors about people

| michaelteter wrote:
| I would be inclined to think this as well. The problem is,

| suits their beliefs, and they will claim fake on real footage
| that doesn't mesh with their beliefs.
|
| This will definitely accelerate the decline of humanity, but
| we were headed downhill already anyway.

| Anyway all academic, prepare for interesting times.

|
| Now imagine what happens when indie film directors have

|
| I'm not dismissing the very real and very legitimate

| Seriously send me links I'd love to see it
