One legitimate one I could imagine is if people want to pursue a career in the adult film industry but without having to reveal their true face (not with a celebrity face of course)

I have been thinking about this comment and if it isn't a celebrity then just someone you know?

If not someone you know then just a random stranger?

Not that I can think of a better use case but it is telling if this is the best we can do.

I just meant a synthetic human (a dalle/stylegan/stable diffusion face output).
Job interviews, bank loans, anywhere racism or discrimination exists (or might exist.)
There's some sort of filter on Instagram (or maybe it is some deepfake tool) that replaces girls' eyes with a set of nice eyes, but it seems the tool only has that pair of eyes, so all the videos of girls with these eyes are so noticable. And so many "influencers" have this pair of eyes, it's depressing.

It's even more amusing when one sees glitches like eyes appearing in front of a strand of hair...
