Not sure about whatever bot op is specifically using, but you can use this software to achieve the same result https://github.com/AliaksandrSiarohin/first-order-model

I think the novel and interesting tech is still happening, its just that without the colorful ads for it on TV, and without the software being packaged up and sold with pretty box art that you can physically hold, it doesn't feel as much like a capital-E Experience. It's probably the Internet's fault that we don't do things like that anymore, but the upside is that we now have access to so many ideas and applications from all over, even ones that aren't commercially viable.

Some that look exciting to me are: an AI that lets you animate still photos realistically [1], a simple website that guides you to discover new parks, eateries, and other places near you [2], an AI that colorizes old black-and-white photos/video [3], a Street View style map of the game world from "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild", with some 1st person 360 degree photos [4], and a tiny game engine that lets you distribute your whole game physically via printed QR codes [5].

If marketing and graphic design people ever felt like getting together to do some 'side projects', I vote that they should make print ads for apps/websites that they like :)

First Order Model

First Order Motion Model (Easy): You can give it an input image and a source video, and the movements from the video will be copied to the image. It has some janky-ness and I would recommend using an ai upscaller afterwards because the resolution isn't that high https://github.com/AliaksandrSiarohin/first-order-model

you can use avatarify ( https://github.com/alievk/avatarify-python ) to do the same, and it's free, as long as you have a moderately powerful PC.

> I think there should be a software solution that blurs faces on the webcam

Avatarify looks pretty neat too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7LFDT-FRzs

Face changer. On windows deepFaceLive and (GNU/linux, windows) avatarify.

I used https://github.com/alievk/avatarify-python

Hey not to bug you but I checked out Avatarify, and while it can produce some funny stuff, it doesn't seem to let you use your own video or audio to make a swap - is this the app you used, or are you using the Python flavored one?

The other method which is common on short videos like tiktok or imgur is an app called Avatarify. All those zoom pranks were done with this app. It is different than Deepfacelab as you are letting the GPU map your face and apply an image over it. its more instantaneous, but not necessarily worse in quality. This is how you see paintings move or those weird "video killed the radio star" sing alongs.

Have you tried Avatarify ?? They uses first order motion model.

Not sure, but you can check this github repo

I saw avatarify some time ago and the underlying model is also first order
