I don't know if i am breaching any forum rules here but.. this is an interesting topic.

So some kid has developed an algorithm and released his source code, that basically lets the user (with a powerful enough graphics card) use machine learning with his program, to render the face of anyone they like on top of another person..

i.e. Celebrities + Porno..

Here is a link to an article about it. - imagine this mixed with VR...

I can see this hitting the mainstream media in no-time.

This is great for me... I often have women at work who are total bitch to me so my solution is to have a tommy tank over their picture... This is often difficult using LinkedIn or facebook profiles pics. This app will open up so many new doors.
I'm lol'ing thank you for this post ^_^

I think it will be used for a lot more than unpleasant(*) sexual fantasies.

Now that an extremely large proportion of people carry a video camera on them at all times, video is being used more often as evidence of something. The easier it is to fake video, the easier it is to construct false evidence. It doesn't even have to stand up to any scrutiny in any courtroom, since most trials are now carried out on "social"(**) media.

e.g. Take video of an assault, put a policeman's face on the attacker, put edited video on Facebook, start a riot. Make a video of yourself saying some unfashionably prejudiced stuff, replace your face with that of someone you don't like, put edited video on Facebook, ruin their career/social status.

* Some people, including me, think that consent should apply to using images of people for sexual purposes.
** I wrote it that way deliberately because a lot of it seems rather anti-social to me.
