i have a 720p camera and a clear, bright image. i see no difference when choosing between female and male actor. it seems stuck in angelina jolie.

Thanks for testing. So you tried all of the available actors but it was always stuck on Angelina Jolie? Can you let me know what browser/platform you are using?

yes. i first saw my face clearly, then the first actor was overlayed. i clicked all of the characters, even giving the system enough time to adapt (waiting up to 20 seconds between switching characters). I didn't really notice a change.

not sure if i just didn't see the change because i didn't paid enough attention.

here's my details:

navigator.userAgent = Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/68.0.3440.106 Safari/537.36

Same for me on Chrome 68.0.3440.106, macOS 10.13.6. Clicking on the other faces does nothing.

thanks. And a change should be very visible and only take less than a second. We will look into this.

(as in other thread): aphrodite.ai transforms your face to a currently limited set of target faces in near realtime. The neural network is not actually running in your browser but streams you webcam video via WebRTC to a high end GPU instance nearby and back. This is still very much work in progress on all parts: frontend, processing, ... Tips on usage: - Use a desktop system with chrome or firefox - If the system do…

Ummm, no camera and no WebRTC here ;) So are there video examples? Edit: Ah, I see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CugXYrV1MDg

Thanks a ton.

Why the hell don't they put an example on their page??

Well, that wouldn't help me. Because without WebRTC, their page doesn't load anything. At least for me, in heavily tweaked Firefox.

People would pay for this for sure, but jeez, this page is terrible, I assume it's just an MVP, you need to get some design work on this asap & I'm sure people will pay.

Thanks for the feedback. Yes, you are right there is still a lot to be done - we are just trying to get some initial comments/thoughts on it via HN. Is is not 'officially' launched yet. Any specific advice on improvements?

your going to probably need celebrities OK to use their likeness.
