#62This is what's being accomplished by one amateur with a little bit of hardware. Imagine what will happen when you have professional services (legal or otherwise) making altered videos of whoever or whatever you want. Want court evidence of your wife cheating? Fake grainy hidden camera video. Want to discredit a politician? Here he is picking up a male escort and using racial slurs. These sorts of things could be used…
Well I disagree.
There are many ways to disprove such video, and if the technology exists, we already know that it exists, so it will make any video, real or not, much less relevant.
The tale of new technology bringing war and mayhem might make sense, but in reality it doesn't. You just wish it would happen, because you might want to have some fiction that says "what if?", but it's just a wish. It's also why I dislike black mirror as a tv show. Distopian science fiction is boring most of the time.

What a misplaced comment. Perhaps you would like to add the many ways the video could be disproven. Instead, you chose to ramble on about personal preference in sci-fi entertainment.

#64Quick preview: u/deepfakes, https://www.gfycat.com/UnsungTotalAmericancrow (NSFW). Very cool, it has a few problems with merging the face but the expression is very convincing. Obviously, it doesn't work very well for very different faces ( https://imgur.com/gallery/OpD3RXC SFW).
The girl/guy sex vid... has her face been superimposed? If so is that a celebrities face?
Yes, yes, Scarlett Johansson.

#65Having just watched season 4 of Black Mirror I jump to Hack News and find this.
I have found the subreddit https://www.reddit.com/r/deepfakes/ (quite NSFW) and I'm somewhat conflicted by it.
People are using this porn as an entry to learn about Deep Learning, but I find it disgusting using the faces of other people fot this without their consent.
At least it seems like the male drive for masturbation can be used for learning about new tech... :-/
EDIT: Added this gold nugget from /r/deepfakes
"well you will be amazed..on sunday i had never touched Python..not even heard of python..lol..saw gal gadot video..came here..Followed Every single Requirements..First i had no clue..it took me 4 days to completely install All the requirements of this project... i have Python 3.5+opencv+tensorflow(Gpu Version which was pain in the ass but i had it installed after several tries) Then finally keras 2..which is Backened Using tensorflow....i have verified all the packages VIA import..All is well now..tired now..Tomorrow ...my 2nd goal would be..."That first post" of Deepfakes which is 300mb or something..haven't used any scripts before...Learning is a game..lets see how i end up"

#67The deepfakes subreddit is remarkable - people without any prior background in machine learning or programming are asking tons of questions and learning all about deep learning. I've always thought applications-first was the best way to teach complicated material, this might be great evidence of that.

#69Earlier quoted context omitted.
Absolutely. I'd be surprised if the NSA and GCHQ who we know already try to use porn and sexual scandals to discredit politicians and other "targets", aren't already using this or at least deep into researching it for their operations. https://www.washington.edu/news/2017/07/11/lip-syncing-obama... http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-25118156 https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/uk/gchq-using-online...
Yeah, those diabolical Western intelligence agencies and their kompromat.
Yes. It's a historical fact that the FBI systematically slandered and harassed peaceful activists. I have no doubt that they (and other agencies) would do it again given the right circumstances; there's a high likelihood that they're doing it right now.

The problem I see with tech like this is that it muddies the water for everyone. I find it very strange that technologies like the internet appear to have created a world with more ambiguity and less transparency than we've had before - mostly because people now can find support for any kind of belief online. Some people are either willing to learn or have learned how to get information from reputation based systems…
This is another means by which advance comms and info capabilities undermine social trust.
