The horror.

This one is sure to haunt me: https://imgur.com/a/lGsRX3n

Or this one

Oh Jesus, it is like one of those Cronenberg movies.

You have to imagine some strong AI in 2030, video chatting with people using fake human avatars, and people can sometimes tell because there's weird fleshly artifacts moving in the background.

That's no weird fleshy artifact moving in the background, that's my wife!

Or some Lovecraftian eldritch abomination trying to pass as human but not quite getting it...

It is the AI equivalent of a genetic mutation.

The uncanny valley

I feel like this is "the 2nd uncanny valley", on the other side of realism. It's more uncanny because the face is so realistic, indistinguishable from a real person. But the weird mistakes around the face reminds us that this is made by something entirely alien, with an alien understanding of what it means to be human. It's like The Thing.

So many deformities in fake space, so tragic. Is there a fake charity I can donate to to stop this horror?

Yep, I've seen some ones like that too. The NN is quite good at knowing what people look like, but it's much worse at knowing what people tend to be next to and sometimes you get some horrors.

I've seen some of those before - the algorithm is a bit strange about people who hang around the edges of the border and sometimes create some fairly horrifying abstractions of humans

I saw something like that first one too!
