I did a fun talk on Deep Fakes, FaceSwap, and intro to GAN’s, and I did a full example of putting Commander Riker’s face on mine!
It was a blast to play around with Riker’s face, since it so closely matched mine with the beard (we all know Riker got better with a beard).
Faceswap was a LOT easier than I originally planned, and now the situation has clearly made it more difficult for people to determine what is fake or not. C’est la vie. I never believed anything I heard or saw to begin with, so I guess that places me ahead of the game.
