AI Creates Fake Obama




AI software could generate highly realistic fake videos of former president Barack Obama using existing audio and video clips of him, a new study (PDF) finds.
University of Washington: “Given audio of President Barack Obama, we synthesize a high quality video of him speaking with accurate lip sync, composited into a target video clip. Trained on many hours of his weekly address footage, a recurrent neural network learns the mapping from raw audio features to mouth shapes. Given the mouth shape at each time instant, we synthesize high quality mouth texture, and composite it with proper 3D pose matching to change what he appears to be saying in a target video to match the input audio track.”
