'Deepfake' AI that can replicate full bodies in motion creates footage of crowds of imaginary people
The fashion industry is forever being accused of using models that have unrealistic standards of beauty -- but in the future, the models themselves could be unreal, too. All of the realistic-looking people in the video below are actually fakes -- dreamed up by a pair of AI developed by researchers from Kyoto University in Japan. The AI were first trained on real-life pictures of humans models. From this, one AI was tasked with repeatedly trying to dream up images of replica models that its counterpart could not distinguish form the real thing. This model-creating technology could one day be used to create fake models for use in advertisements and by the clothing and fashion industries.
