Considering most of the people on Instagram don’t even look like the photos of “themselves” that they post on Instagram, this might be an uncanny valley image generator.
Thing is they have the original data aswell to train on, so the machine knows what the average of someone looks like and the average to which they change it so they could in theory have a good grasp of the uncanny valley or at least nó the gap the scale back to am original look.
