    Spice up your Zoom meetings

    It seems that everyone is using Zoom now, so why not spice it up and deepfake your face and swap out with someone more interesting or better looking.

    Having met some of you, this could be life changing...have a remote interview? Swap out your face for someone younger or normal looking.

    For those who actually want to try it, see the github link below, be warned you need a beefy graphics card.

    I have successfully managed to avoid being on any zoom meet ups. I think I should seek out how to turn me into a potato and see if people can spot the difference.

      You are in luck, there is a filter on 'Snap Camera' (by Snapchat) where you can be a potato for your meetings

        I'm not installing snapchat.

        I think I'll just get a Mr Potato Head kit and a spud from Sainsbury's

          I'm going to get it to fake me be awake. Or I could just do this:

            I've managed to avoid Zoom meetings to, though it seems to be the thing at the moment.

            I think you can create your own avatar faces which seems a bit dangerous just need to practice on the vocal impression, maybe not.

              Why are people using Zoom, some dubious Chinese software (Eric Yuan - Wikipedia) probably sponsored by the Chinese Communists to spy on US and Western corporations?

              Has the world gone fecking mad?

                  No idea, though I'm not sure how secure the alternatives are. Friend has to do consultations via Zoom as apparently Skype isn't secure enough.

                    Nothing is as unsecure as Zoom. We use Cisco Jabber.
