| Why so serious, Donald Trump? Maybe you’d find less need to reach for ALL CAPS as you compose your tweets if you smiled a little more? Go on, have a go… There, not so hard was it!
Okay, okay, if you’re finding the vision of Trump’s visage with a smile on it generating ‘uncanny valley’ levels of unease and creepiness you’d be right.
The smile is FAKE NEWS folks! Created, after the fact, by a photo-realistic face-morphing iOS app, called FaceApp, which uses neural networks to edit selfies — letting users bend reality in a few choice ways, such as by adding a smile, or shaving off a few years or applying a beautifying ‘hotness’ filter. Who said augmented reality requires donning a pair of goggles?
FaceApp is being developed by a small team out of Saint-Petersburg, Russia. |
