It would be interesting to see how far you could get using deepfakes as a method for video call compression. Train a model locally ahead of time and upload it to a server, then whenever you have a call scheduled the model is downloaded in advance by the other participants. Now, instead of having to send video data, you only have to send a representation of the facial movements so that the recipients can render it on…
Theoretically you can deepfake yourself but then be not at the place, just pipe in your voice. Prob be accomplished by linking it to some Twilo API
I am just waiting for someone to build a deep_nude_realtime_zoom plugin so I can finally tell people that we should take digital security, privacy and identity seriously.

I believe that’s what the vocoder was created for. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vocoder
This is pretty funny. I wonder, how hard would it be to use tech like this to make it look like you are looking the camera “in the eyes”?
Apple is doing this on FaceTime with the latest iOS. Pretty neat feature, makes Video calls more personal.

Seems they've been working on it since 2002:

The way that the mouth and eyes move, but that the rest of the face is pretty static, is actually really charming to me. It betrays that it's a fake, which I think makes it easier to be a fun joke.
That’s simple. If you are trying to fool someone.... “My internet speed is very low. I know the video is choppy”.
