    Is this not how people have been making deep fakes already? What’s different here?

      It’s the fact that it’s in near real time now, older techniques with older hardware would need much longer.

      This is real time and based from one image.

      Deep fakes up to this point are generally not real time, and are generally trained on the source, then with different methods can be applied to the video. Say, making Kermit the Frog doing a dance as the final video, but it’s been deep faked to look like Ms. piggy.

      There are tons of examples of AI that post process deep fakes. This is one of the few real time ones that you can link to a webcam, have a single photo, and you are the deepfake.

      From my understanding, that hasn’t been done yet, at least not in the AI spaces I’ve been part of.
