> Instead, the points on the face are sent across the net and the face is actually generated. This is not fundamentally different from other lousy compression algorithms. The bits that are missing are reconstructed using a bias built in the compression algorithm. Deep learning based algorithms simply have a more realistic bias, so the artifacts that introduced to replace the missing bits are less noticeable.
