HEINLEIN WINS AGAIN! So in Stranger In A Strange Land, we have the institution of the Fair Witness, people who are trained and sworn to observe and report accurately, because images and recordings are so easy to doctor.
And now we have this in real life:This system instantly edits videos to make it look like you’re saying something you’re not.
“The short version: take a YouTube video of someone speaking like, say, George W. Bush.
Use a standard RGB webcam to capture a video of someone else emoting and saying something entirely different.
Throw both videos into the Face2Face system and, bam, you’ve now got a relatively believable video of George W. Bush’s face — now almost entirely synthesized — doing whatever the actor in the second video wanted the target’s face to do.
It even tries to work out what the interior of their mouth should look like as they’re speaking.”
"It’s only a coincidence, I’m sure, that both examples in this illustration are Republicans: George W. Bush and Donald Trump."
