This gallery showcases the stunning realism of generative AI in creating lifelike portraits of people who do not exist. What began with early explorations in Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs)—pioneering the concept of “people who never lived”—has now evolved into a technology capable of producing hyper-realistic depictions indistinguishable from real photographs. This remarkable advancement opens new creative possibilities but also raises pressing concerns about identity, authenticity, and truth in the digital age.
The generated images featured in this section highlight the incredible precision of the technology, capturing every nuance of expression, texture, and detail. At the same time, they challenge us to question the boundaries between reality and fabrication, urging us to reflect on the ethical implications of such powerful tools. Acquaintances invites you to explore this fascinating intersection of art, technology, and societal responsibility.
