The tech is pretty grown up at this point... If you open up snapchat and hold down on your face while the selfie camera is active, a lot of masks will show up that change your face in real-time. One of these swaps your gender (and does a pretty good job of it to be honest). And this is just running on a phone (including android where there's no AI chip like in iphones), I'm sure with a computer you can do much better!
- danso 7y agoOk, I found an example (I don't have snapchat installed) of one of these filters working on video (not sure if it would work for live streaming): https://www.cnet.com/how-to/want-to-try-that-gender-face-swap-thing-everyones-doing-heres-how/ https://www.cnet.com/how-to/want-to-try-that-gender-face-swa... I guess it looks...obviously like a filter, with particular distortion around the hair? In the BBC story's lede image [0], which purports to be two photos of the same vlogger, with and without the filter, her "filtered" face is substantially slimmed, yet the hair near the software-slimmed contours of the face looks, not fake at all?
