These People were made by an AI

NVIDIA developed an AI that creates highly detailed images of human-looking faces that don’t actually exist.

Progressive Growing of GANs for Improved Quality, Stability, and Variation

We describe a new training methodology for generative adversarial networks. The key idea is to grow both the generator and discriminator progressively: starting from a low resolution, we add new layers that model increasingly fine details as training progresses. This both speeds the training up and greatly stabilizes it, allowing us to produce images of unprecedented quality.
