xoxo Yea you're right, moving this into production is not that easy. The models are becoming quite powerful but still sometimes misses or misaligns when the face moves around to the sides or when throwing head to the back.
On the illegal aspect, I didn't mean allowing users to upload their own source face to deepfake. That's gonna be a liability hell on your end that I wouldn't wanna touch either. I was strictly talking about a licensed SLR Face Gallery to choose from with consent all curated by your team.
Oof never thought about the second idea but gonna take a while until hardware catches up... maybe with the Apple Vision Pro 3th gen lol. I'll keep exploring and report back if I find a breakthrough, for now I wouldn't make it a high priority
