This has a pretty terrifying aspect to it... have we already passed the point at which no image seen on a screen can be trustworthy at all? How long until such a technology can easily process a command like "disrobe everyone in this photo" and produce a very believable facsimile of what the people in the photo would look like? Should such be seen as a violation against those people? The list of potential abuses of such technology is so very long and interesting and filled with pitfalls.

- brokenmachine 9y agoThat sounds amazing, I can't wait!
- joshvm 9y agoThis would probably be a grey area. We're also long past the point where an image can be absolutely trustworthy (without digital forensics). Certainly digital 'fake nudes' exist and as with any image alteration, a professional artist can make something very convincing these days. When you use a GAN (or any kind of infill algorithm) it's not an oracle. It's generating a visually plausible guess at the data you're replacing. You could give it a face and a body outline and ask it to fill in the gaps, but what you generated wouldn't be 'real'. Legally who knows? It would depend on what the law of making an obscene facsimile of someone is (or whatever the law calls it).
