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/

I don't know. If you're really curious, you can just try it: https://github.com/NVlabs/stylegan2

> The denoising part of a denoising autoencoder refers to the noise applied to its input

Agree, it converts a noisy image to a denoised image. But the odd thing is, when you put a noisy image into a StyleGAN2 encoder, you get latents which the decoder will turn into a de-noised image. So in practical use, you can take a trained StyleGAN2 encoder/decoder pair and use it as if it was a denoiser.

> These differences lead to learned distributions in the latent space that are entirely different

I also agree there. The training for a denoising auto-encoder and for a GAN network is different, leading to different distributions which are sampled for generating the images. But the architecture is still very similar, meaning the limits of what can be learned should be the same.

> Beyond that the comparison just doesn't work, yes there are two networks but the discriminator doesn't play the role of the AE's encoder at all

Yes, the discriminator in a GAN won't work like an encoder. But if you look at how StyleGAN 1/2 are used in practice, people combine it with a so-called "projection", which is effectively an encoder to convert images to latents. So people use a pipeline of "image to latent encoder" + "latent to image decoder".

That whole pipeline is very similar to an auto-encoder. For example, here's an NVIDIA paper about how they round-trip from image to latent to image with StyleGAN: https://arxiv.org/abs/1912.04958 My interpretation of what they did in that paper is that they effectively trained a StyleGAN-like model with the image L2 loss typically used for training a denoising auto-encoder.

These problems are usually done with CNN Encoder-Decoder frameworks. Usually GAN (Generative Adversarial Networks see StyleGan2).

This is the result of two different models. The first looks like a latent space interpolation of StyleGan2 and the mouth movements are without a doubt from wav2lip.

OP: if you want to run this at higher resolution, you should probably look at running it yourself, using something like this: https://github.com/NVlabs/stylegan2

A few of you might've seen an earlier post of mine about this project (Or the repost that got more upvotes 🙃), and I've improved the code and network since then after more thoroughly reading and understanding the official StyleGAN2 implementation.

So I've been a Pro+ subscriber since around November which I mainly use to train GANs. I have multiple Google accounts, let's call them Account 1, 2, and 3. Accounts 1 and 2 are normal Google accounts and Account 3 is an account I got from my university after I graduated which has unlimited storage.
