I am so happy to see Stuff Made Here in your KZread feed. One of the best channels on the platform (along with this one, of course).

The thing is, if you turn your video quality to 144p at 5:30, it looks pretty convincing, and he learned to make this in about an hour and then just left his computer running for a couple more. Eventually, we will need videos to be 8k and contain many different lightings/settings to know if it's real.

I hope you take this as a compliment. But amongst the 'productive' channels of youtube, you really draw me in lately as your approach to learning is somewhat more relatable. Something along the line of going to youtube and fumbling along the way.

Pre training machine learning before running a deepfake on Omegle would be hilarious 😂

I always love how well edited your videos are - absolutely incredible

Mike- you have been an inspiration to me and my family. Learning new skills no matter what age - having the ‘growth’ mindset. The only beef I have with you is that you are not actually ‘average’ mike. You are highly intelligent and creative and have determination to follow things through. Thanks again for the inspiration!

Like you, I have spent loads of time learning DeepFace Lab. It's a pretty steep learning curve, but it's fun to do. I've found the most important, and most difficult thing is, finding a source and destination face that match. If they both don't have similar face shape, particularly the jaw line, you won't get good results. Sometimes a source and destination will look similar in frontal view, but different in profile. Other than that, the most important thing is patience.

Well done, Mike, interesting video that really gives us a feel for the level of effort involved. Surprisingly hard, yet surprisingly difficult to get right. But not so difficult as an amateur couldn't do this convincingly! Spooky.

Thx Mike. Fan for YEARS and years now. (You always seem to find things I wanna know myself) About this one, my comments / suggestions: One difficult thing about YOUR face: the beard. It makes it difficult for the AI to see the contours, and match it to (in particular) beardLESS individuals). Also, I think specifying which part of the face = "a face" matters a lot. (A lot of the (super janky) fake looking ones involve people with bangs, for instance. I reckon you defined the face up to the bangs in those. My suggestion is to define it until where the hairline SHOULD start, even when you can't see it.... > GUESS-TIMATE In your case, I would suggest feeding it lots and lots and lots of images of people WITH BEARD (or 'facial hair' / douchebag chin strap / stubble / mustache / handlebars / sideburns / unibrows, etc etc.), and to really take some time defining where the chin and jaw line would be UNDERNEATH the facial hair. (Otherwise the AI will try to put your 1/1 face onto 3/4 of a face because hair is in the way...) - In general, I think the main trick to quality here is just building and building and BUILDING the amount of references the AI has to work with.

I've watched every single one of your videos. They're all great... but this was incredible. Loved it!

The Sparta One actually legitimately looked realistic, like I could see you as the actor literally

It went from bad (bad) to even worse but absolutely awesome. Had a really good laugh watching this video.

Trying to deepfake Jim's face would be a nightmare, that dude's rages are huge.

Hey Mike, I've had an idea for a kind of trick bouncing around my head for a while now, but I don't have the skill to test it. Basically, it combines spinning a pen with something similar to the front flip throws seen in soccer to launch an object like a pen or pencil. The idea would be to flip a pen/pencil around your fingers, back and forth across your hand, and to time that with a kind of front or diagonal flip in such a way that it minimizes the loss of momentum on the pen before launching it.

The JAWS one was pretty good, then I LOL'd at LOTR. Great results in the end for how long people spend really learning this skill. Great job as always.

I looked away for 1 second in the intro and the Jim Carrey face scared the crap out of me

The timing is impeccable. Just yesterday, I swear. I'm 21 years old and i finally decided what i want to study and persue as a career. Yesterday, within 24hrs ago i decided i wanted to be a machine learning engineer. Then you drop this video and you drop me a place to begin looking towards as i begin my first steps into learning computer science. You're one hell of a messenger

The concept of deepfakes is already common knowledge. So, the problem is actually that as the technology gets better, everything recorded now has plausible deniability. You can't really blackmail people, because the video or audio evidence isn't enough to prove they did it. Basically, we may need to build AI to fight deepfakes by detecting AI manipulation.

I think the thing is that the best looking deepfake is always going to be a combination of both deepfakes and vfx to "clean up" and mistakes that are output. I think right now we dont have the compute power to make something that is very convincing yet even though what we have is leagues and bounds from what it started from. Probably needs a couple more years to hone it in but what we have now is still really good.

I love the moment u chose for the end result xD. Epic

Hello Mike Boyd! I was deeply moved by your fantastic video. Could you please provide the link to the guide document mentioned at 10:50 (the one you mentioned you read 10 times)? Thanks again for creating such amazing content!

I was so focused on spotting the imperfections of your deepfake face on the clips that my mind still did it even when you are just talking as yourself on the sponsor segment.

Yo mike I have a suggestion on what you could learn next, maybe it’s a bit more physical and less technology involved but I think you should learn how to flip a balisong

Thet ‘this is sparta’ one is actually very convincing!

Nice information sirji thanks 👍🙏

Damn I love your videos this one was one of the more unexpected ones

Good video that cleared up many wrong assumptions about deepfaking. Real truth is if you really wanna make it on profesional level without glitching and pixel and coloring ghosting first you need to spend many hours in try and error loops. Second more important thing you need a powerhouse PC,with at least one RTX 3090/4090 gpu and top of the line CPU and machine would most likely run for 24 hours maybe even days if you want to reach perfection. You need very expensive cooling system to avoid overheating on this long hours,it's very possible that in the process of making this deepfakes your GPU would fail and need a replacement. Deepfaking is very stresfull on GPU,on the same level with mining so be prepare to costly repairs. Other then that yea,you need a lot of patience and talent but if you are really good results can be terrifying.

I didn't use another other programs other than Deepfacelab. For some 1080p clips I upscaled to 4k using Topaz upscaler. But no compositing or after effects type processing was performed. Some shots just looked better. Also, I reshot "my face" in the studio and outdoors which seemed to produce better results too.

I had a play around with deepfakes when they first became a thing. Garbage in, garbage out is exactly right, but for me the biggest stumbling block was the compute time. The longer it has to learn, the better the result and even with what was a very high-end PC at the time, it would take days just to get something that vaguely worked and literally weeks to get something convincing. Like you said, it's as much art as it is science....we're still years away from deepfakes being the 'one click' process they tend to get represented as.

The most interesting part of this video had nothing to do with face changing, but for me it was your pronunciation of the words "learn and learned". I could listen to that all day. The face thing was alright, too.

Wow, that's a huge effort! I love the Jim Carrey one
