Do These People Look Real? Artificial Intelligence And Deep Fake Videography Prove That "Seeing Is Not Believing"

 

6. Do the people pictured above look real?

They may look familiar, but they don’t exist. We built an A.I. system to create fake faces like the ones used to fool people on Facebook, Amazon and even Tinder.

The technology that makes them is improving at a startling pace thanks to a new type of artificial intelligence called a generative adversarial network.  In essence, you feed a computer program a bunch of photos of real people. It studies them and tries to comes up with its own photos, while another part of the system tries to detect which of them are fake.

But just like humans, the programs can be deeply flawed. See for yourself.
