This Person Does Not Exist – Let’s “Face” the Future!

This Person Does Not Exist is an intriguing website that showcases the power of AI for generating realistic human faces. Despite some limitations and obvious ethical considerations, it gives us a glimpse into the future of AI technology and its potential.  “This Person Does Not Exist” utilizes Artificial Intelligence (AI) to create portraits of entirely fictional people. Developed by Nvidia’s research team, it offers a fascinating look at the capabilities of generative adversarial networks (GANs) for creating realistic human faces.

Let’s take a look at six more faces I generated this morning in less than 5 minutes.

None of the faces shown above are real.  Each was generated by artificial intelligence (AI). As you can see, AI can produce incredibly realistic portraits. Faces appear detailed, with natural skin tones, eyes, hair, and variations in age and ethnicity. It’s difficult to tell the difference between an AI-generated portrait and a real person’s photo.

While impressive, AI doesn’t always achieve perfect realism. Sometimes, there might be minor inconsistencies in facial features, hairlines, or clothing that reveal the artificial origin of the portrait. Can you spot any inconsistencies in the portraits shown above?

To create a new portrait, simply refresh the page. There is no limit to the number of faces you can create. However, there’s currently no way for users to influence the generated faces. The AI creates random portraits, offering a glimpse into its understanding of human appearance.

The realistic nature of these portraits raises ethical considerations and questions about potential misuse for creating deepfakes or impersonations.

We’re featuring “This Person Does Not Exist” to show you the power of AI. And we think you’ll enjoy “creating” faces on the site.
