I follow you and Pieter Levels on twitter. Some wild things you guys create -- the control net things are unreal. I am continually impressed and inspired.

If you're looking for critiques or improvements stating "Indistinguishable from real photos" seems a stretch as good as they are. Even if I were to use ai photos, I'd never try to pass them off as real. Seems dishonest. I'd push more towards a new thing, not sell as replacement for proper headshots. In that way, I'd think stylized things would do better, ie make it a piece of art. But also I'm def not target customer and you already seem to be doing quite well. Good on you for building so much.

To generate realistic looking headshots, you need high quality training data (i.e. high quality headshots) of the person. Then what's stopping them from using stable diffusion and stylize those existing photos in the first place?

With photo-shopping, makeup, plastic surgery... AI generated photos are ethical.

Correction: are just as ethical.

Make up is unethical?

This depends on what the makeup is made up of.
