Seriously? One could always cut-and-paste (not the computer term) a hairstyle over a photo of a person. You are now marvelling at someone taking the collective output of humans around the world, then training a model on it with massive, mas

In France I heard they had toilets that you had to pay to keep the door from opening. A real “captive audience” and “impulse buy” if I do say so. In general, owning a gas station on a highway is far more profitable than owning it on a stree

Well, if they have never released open source, they might not be the right developer for us. We don't have to chase after every type of person, we have specific needs. Having said that, if I was hiring for a big corporation, I'd s
