Earlier quoted context omitted.

Author may want to implement a labelling method for users for a days to maybe train the discriminator a little bit better. Would be a cool human-in-the-loop exercise.

Yes something like this: http://www.whichfaceisreal.com/

ML generates some rather bad artifacts. Just look for those.

Even in this[1] difficult comparison you can see the non-human repeating skin patterns on the right and the awkward teeth contour. Also hair-on-skin often looks wet and with unnatural bends.

When comparing wrinkly people then it gets a little harder.

A while back I started to think about something like gan.tv (it's an owned domain I see) for computer generated entertainment. This cat one and the person one would be example channels. I assume we're going to get pretty creative with how we use automated creativity in the near future.

I think this might be a well-done satire showcasing the pitfalls of having insufficient training data. It's magnificent. Half the cats are adorable and half are, I believe, creatures from "The Thing".

Also when you use a dataset containing watermarked stock photos and the watermark is treated as a signal instead of noise :) https://i.imgur.com/O1ZRwSF.jpg

Curious, is cat more complex object than human's face for ML to be trained and produced?

In a plenty of results, I'm getting an ok cat face with a cat-like blob attached to it. So I'd say it's difficult for the model to discern any features in a mass of color-splotched fur.
