The deepfakes subreddit is remarkable - people without any prior background in machine learning or programming are asking tons of questions and learning all about deep learning. I've always thought applications-first was the best way to teach complicated material, this might be great evidence of that.

Porn has always been a factor in driving technology forward.

People who weren’t motivated before to learn machine learning or programming suddenly are.

This is no different!

Finally, people willing to publically sexually humiliate others are being empowered to code. I hope the girls who sit across from them in IRL school are able to catch some of these creeps capturing their face.
