    It depends. Did they really train a model and try a long time until something great came out? Yeah, definitely.

    Did they take a real image as a basis and just let one or two iterations of a filter run over it? Nope.

    The latter is how most people get those super realistic pictures without having a supercomputer or waiting a long time. They are basically faking.

      You don’t know much about AI it seems. The super realistic ones are not just a filter over existing images, in fact they take as long to create as the non-realistic ones. I have a fairly shit computer (for AI, in general it’s ok but it only has 4 GB VRAM) and I made some realistic images. Like this one: https://i.imgur.com/1qUK0BM.png

        This is not what I’m talking about. The images I mean are usually used to generate highly realistic porn.

        Like this one (NSFW)

        You can notice the “trick” because there’s just some tiny, almost unnoticeable difference between the body and the face, like they don’t belong to each other.

            Yeah, and the neck is weirdly long. In the communities where pictures like this are posted, they usually also place children’s heads on thin women’s bodies… yuck.

            But then they pretend that this is just “what the AI created”
