The kakistocracy’s Crime Syndicate arm, among other dirty tricksters, now has at its disposal new cutting-edge technology for creating fake personas. Nvidia researchers posted details of the method for producing completely imaginary fake faces with stunning, almost eerie realism. Here’s the paper. Coupled with computer generated images (CGI), one might as well largely disregard almost all that emerges from the Lugenpresse and Brave New World sources.
It’s called a “generative adversarial network,” or GAN. GANs employ neural networks to train a computer to learn the nature of a data set well enough to generate convincing fakes. When applied to images, this provides a way to generate often highly realistic fakery. Nvidia’s promo video demonstrates the new technology.
Some are theorizing that dementia Joe Biden is largely a product of this technology.
Researchers took inspiration from a technique known as style transfer to build their GAN in a fundamentally different way. This allowed their algorithm to identify different elements of a face that “researchers” could then control. The approach can also be manipulated and remixed using varied elements, such as age, race, gender or even freckles. Some results are shown below.
Adobe also has a project that uses GANs to improve the realism of images after they have been manipulated. GANs can also be used to sharpen up degraded images or older video. Of course, this could be used to ever-so-slightly alter to appearance of real “crisis actors” in future visual presentations, or eliminate the need for them altogether.

Psychologically, this advancement should be a slam dunk for pulling off hoaxes, blackmail, compromising people, assassinations, false flags and black ops. “Kayfabe” can now be enhanced. This is a term associated with pro wrestling, meaning presenting staged performances as authentic or real. Fake drama, fake tension, fake feuds. Jeff the pro wrestling fan explains it.
It’s fertile ground as several generations have already been brain warped through video gaming and “reality” TV to the point that they can scarcely discern CGI fiction, or what Winter Watch calls the “Cartoon World.” And most of the population either are unable to apply critical thinking or are too naive to process even glaring examples of skulduggery.
A cheap black magic looking B team version of this technology appeared to be employed in the You Tube building shooting in April. 2018 by a fake looking character one Nasime Sabz aka Aghdam. Look at the absurd presentation of her giraffe like neck in the CGI.
Motherboard discovered a Reddit editor (redditor) named “deepfakes”. Just a random dude who happened to enjoy playing the swap game with celebrity faces with the help of publicly available porn videos, a machine learning algorithm and his trusty home computer, of course. He made several convincing porn videos of celebrities, including Gal Gadot, Maisie Williams, Taylor Swift, Scarlett Johansson, Maisie Williams, Daisy Ridley and Aubrey Plaza.
This amateur was quoted as saying, “I want to improve it to the point where prospective users can simply select a video on their computer, download a neural network correlated to a certain face from a publicly available library and swap the video with a different face with the press of one button.”
False evidence needed to drum up star chamber crime charges? How much easier has blackmail and compromise become — as in “Hello, we taped your private intimacies and we know what you did.”
Who needs elaborate old-school compromising operations like Jimmy Savile, Craig Spence and Jeffrey Epstein when you have this tool? And we already know who’s minding the hen house.
There’s a separate pattern worth noting, with drones as a parallel example. First, launch ‘consumer’ drones and let everyone and their brother buy one as drone technology gets ever more sophisticated. As the military and surveillance world use them more and more, people know what they are so there’s no mystery.
Then ban them – the mysterious passenger flight groundings in the UK just before Christmas because of ‘drone encroachment’ into Gatwick was the ‘action, reaction, solution’ with that one. Today if you own a drone in the USA you have to mark an FAA number you have bought from the government along with your license to fly it in approved airspace only.
The deepfake push was similar last year – big media fuss about Hollywood media assets faces being crudely ‘pasted’ onto porn clips, while simultaneously Nvidia and Adobe are publicly demonstrating sophisticated visual and audio facial and body image manipulation. As always -problem reaction solution – great consternation about porn and restriction of usage of these tools by the peons, with legal penalties being drafted for inappropriate use, while the crime syndicate continue to use these ever more sophisticated techniques to manipulate the masses….
In the early 80’s I studied at what was then called MIT’s Center for Advanced Visual Studies. Nick Negroponte had a cyber lab called Architecture Machine Group (ARCMAC) which was at the forefront of fakery. His favorite project was a limitless cache of Richard Nixon frames which were paired up with a vocal recognition cell – one could speak into it and make Richard Nixon seem to say anything. That was nearly 40 years ago. There is no guarantee that anything viewed on MSM has any basis in reality.
Today, will actually be really short for me.
First, I really like the two comments here from nedlearn and horsegirl, since they are older there would seem little point in responding to either one of them; however, I did wish to say how much I liked them and what a throwback, that ARCMAC really got the old “simple memory” working.
Second, on this point:
“Some are theorizing that dementia Joe Biden is largely a product of this technology.”
Yes, I would concur.
And finally (just a little Monday humor folks):
RW, did you have to put that video of me crying up there? Really?
An aside: By the way ladies and gentleman, during that phase of my life I was mainly fueled by the Taco Bell Chalupa Cravings Box; could not get enough of them. Now I swear that the reason I look a little out-of-shape was all based on the sodium. You see, TB was not warning us about the sodium content at the time; they have since corrected this issue:

Scary stuff
Problem – Reaction – Solution will be that these deepfakes will precipitate the “need” for Digital ID’s to manage all the “fake hackers” that are creating false personas.
Citizen: “Government, please do something about all the fake identities and deep fakes. I don’t know who is real and who is fake anymore!”
Government: “Okay, Digital ID’s, biometric ID’s, Internet Passports to secure you from the Russian/Chinese/ISIS/QANON hackers. You’re welcome”
We’re 23 years into the 21st century and have no cures for Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, Diabetes, Cancer or most other diseases that is publicly acknowledged and available, yet we have self-driving cars and now this GAN crap. This is why I keep saying the human race is headed for extinction, because this is where the bulk of our resources is going, into stuff like this and of course war. They only allow us to have lower end tech that THEY control. They keep the real deal stuff for themselves. I have a book in my library about super weapons from WW2 and the author states that some of the tech developed during WW2 is still classified to this day!
Glad I never became a scientist. They have become nothing more than scum who work for corporations or government institutions promoting their agenda. They only develop tech that will be used to enslave or manipulate mankind. Real scientists like NIKOLA TESLA that wanted to improve the condition of mankind had their work stolen, were disenfranchised and ultimately murdered.
I no longer believe Nikola Tesla died of coronary thrombosis in 1943 as Wikipedia states. Otto Skorzeny, who was Adolf Hitler’s bodyguard, gave a deathbed interview in 1999 revealing that he and another man murdered Tesla in 1943 after they had gathered all the info they needed on his tech and how it work. To support this theory, Tesla was hit by a car shortly before his death which may have been the first attempt on his life.
Perhaps in the future Russ can write an article on Tesla (if he already hasn’t) and how this extraordinary man wanted to free mankind. This world is truly sickening, sometimes I wish I was never born into it. It makes me sick to constantly see evil men win.
