#42To my mind there is a massive need for us in the software world to pause and think about the ethics of all of this. Engineers more broadly have well developed ethical codes, we should too.

#43It's interesting to see so high quality on image generation using neural networks, while text generation using gpt2, which seems a lot easier at first, is glorified nonsense.

#44This has improved so much since the last time I checked it. It's interesting to see so high quality on image generation using neural networks, while text generation using gpt2, which seems a lot easier at first, is glorified nonsense.
There is, this time, much less craziness with hair sprouting from the wrong places.

#46The background, clothing and especially other people in the image are still a dead giveaway that it's not a real person. It's kind of weird how the algorithm borks something relatively simple as the texture of clothing.

#47What is the likelihood that the generated person does exist? I got the feeling this could turn out the same as people using fake email addresses to later discover that the domain in fact exists (that's why you should always use example.com).
In reality, there are already real-world doppelgangers, where a typical observer would confuse two (unrelated) individuals. I'm guessing that could happen with a synthetic image too, but it's probably not any worse than a real-world matching error. (The bigger concern is the related one of deepfakes, which don't need any kind of synthesis, they just act directly on the real person's image.)
