Is it just me or does that not even really look like Harris?

Yea, not even really close if you look at the face for more than half a second. From what I have seen AI generated images have a real hard time making convincing POC.

Suggests a lot about how AI is trained

People usually underestimate the systemic part in systemic racism

Having messed around with these recently. Most of the current models have you use a 'face fix' pass. This ensures the details in the face aren't blurry or messed up, but also tends to make all the faces look samey because they're being generated and then generated again. Sort of a copy of a copy situation.

Works well for generic characters, but bad for faking real people.

They're total garbage but they seem able to fake donald dump more accurately.

Yeah it looks nothing like her except sorta similar skin color and hair.

I get Robin Wright vibes. Maybe they were going for the subliminal House of Cards reference?

Conservatives think it's spot on, they can never tell the difference.

Because she's warm, intelligent, enthusiastic, and charismatic. They can't portray any of those qualities so you end up with brooding, darker-skinned lady!

It looks like a young Janeane Garofalo with long hair.

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yep, that's Mystery Men era Janeane

I really need to watch that movie again. It's a mess but a really fun mess.

It looks more like that one actress from the house on haunted hill.
