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

export default function ChannelListBottomBar(): JSX.Element { const { client } = useChatContext(); const [micActive, setMicActive] = useState(false); const [audioActive, setAudioActive] = useState(false); return (

{client.user?.image && (

div> )}

{client.user?.name} span> {client.user?.online ? 'Online' : 'Offline'} span> p> button>

setMicActive((currentValue) => !currentValue)} > button> setAudioActive((currentValue) => !currentValue)} > button> button> div> ); }

I wonder if we will ever get a realism model which can produce normal faces like https://thispersondoesnotexist.com instead of like super symmetrical faces of models

this has been in circulation since a while AI images took off, and they certainly weren't convincing before they did. You know the old "try to name one thing in this image" macro? Pretty sure that was AI generated, there was also thispersondoesnotexist.com which was always pretty good but of course it is

Not the workflow for these images, but if you easily want to spice up your gens with a bit more natural look, try using images from thispersondoesnotexist.com with IPAdapter face model.

...then they just use the app on generated images of not real people (potentially based on specific inputs to remind you of a real person).

Also we can generate very realistic faces with AI, https://thispersondoesnotexist.com/ (old example), fully 3D faces are doable at this point. So in another 5-10 years a low profile model like him wouldn't even be hired for this, they would just generate a digital face model. Unionizing will only speed up studios adoption of digital replacements.

It looks like they all use a profile picture made with https://thispersondoesnotexist.com/
