That's cool, but how is it different from photoshops "content aware fill" that debuted 8 years ago?

QUICK! Photoshop the thumbnail to "Purrelli"!

Hadn't considered that. Seems too good and varied, but then again there was just that "Photoshop for Audio" thing that sounded like Obama, etc...

My personal prediction is that it will in the next 10 years get good enough to fool casual viewers. But society will adapt by recognizing that video needs to be verified, and any trustworthy media outlet will need to employ forensic video experts to verify clips.

We already do this with photos. No one thinks that even good photoshops of celebrity heads on porn stars are real. Or that photographic evidence that Hillary Clinton is a lizard person is likely to check out. I mean other than Alex Jones.

Why not just use PhotoShop to fix it?

You can't be serious. Is this the new "I've seen a few Photoshops in my day" meme?

It's a shitty cell phone video. Look how blown out the signs on the ground are.

And if you're being sarcastic, try harder.

Holy crap... And I thought right wingers with their stupid photoshops and memes were pathetic when Obama was elected...

Nope, that's my own creation. I attended a Photoshop seminar last year (as part of an advanced vocational education course), but me and one of my classmates already knew how to use Photoshop, so we kept challenging each other to create strange and funny images throughout the seminar. You can admire our creations here: https://imgur.com/a/NFavi (but please don't share them, they probably violate a ton of copyrights ).
My profile pic is part of the first image. Our homework was to photoshop a small group of meerkats into a desert. I added a few more - and five pop culture easter eggs.

"So why did you feel Tarkin needed to be in this film?"

"Because Peter Cushing would have been too expensive."

...

But in all seriousness, being able to "photoshop" video likenesses of dead people this well could have all kinds of implications on how we view reality in a few years once anyone can do it with their home computer....

Someone needs to photoshop some T-1000 spikey metallic arms on that guy, and change the music to T2:JD

(yeah I watched that movie way too much as a kid, and I see it everywhere)

I just ran across this picture yesterday, the Trump family portrait:

Ha, isn't that great! I don't know what Slovenian sentiment in general is towards American taste, but let me assure that their family photo is tacky even by American standards. Just thought you might want to share this with your countrymen, as I'm sure Melania is a great source of pride to you all.

edit: Yes, that is a real picture, not photoshopped:

Most of these look photoshopped to me. Still great though

Well I haven't seen Ghostbusters yet, but remember when everyone was pissed off because the new Star Wars had a woman and a black storm trooper as the lead characters?

Do you also remember when the film succeeded on its own merits and no one gave a shit any more because the film was actually good?

Releasing a film where the four principle characters are 3 intelligent white scientists and a streetwise sassy black woman is hardly a fucking exercise in equality anyway. And we're talking about a remake of a comedy that was popular and successful in the 80s - it's not like they're taking big risks and giving the women a chance to shine on their own, is it? How about an all-woman written and directed original film, or can't they spare the money? Because they seem to find enough cash for Seth Rogen or one of the other comedy clones to vomit out another catastrophe every year. Or maybe the people with the money are all men and prefer jokes about farts and masturbation.

That's the worst thing that seems to get ignored - this is Hollywood's lazy way of brushing a few crumbs from the table and saying 'See? Women have just as much power and prominence in the movies! By the way, do you know any girl who's turned 18? We need the new love interest for a 50 year old in the latest action flick. We need someone who looks just good enough that we can photoshop a huge pair of tits on her. We're going to take it in turns to take her to dinner and try to bed her before filming starts.' Hello people? There is enough sexism to deal with in Hollywood without worrying what IMDB rating Ghostbusters got and why.. Treat the disease, not the symptoms.
