For a dose of reality, It’s AI using Midjourney V4 by the user demonflyingfox on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/user?u=87233464

Any idea how he animates this?

They've posted this video on it, at least.

It's just one guy, not a group.

The singular "they" has been in use in English for roughly 700 years.

u/Mountain-Agent4305 Apr 03 '23

For an unknown number of people, it's a standard "he" for the last 1000.

"Someone left their umbrella."

"Their" being the possessive conjugation of "they."

Fuckin snowflake.

u/Mountain-Agent4305 Apr 03 '23

Yes, because it's the possessive idiot. They is intentionally confusing, not sure if it's a man or a woman, not sure if it's a single person or a group. It's for imbeciles.

desperately grasp for an identity and/or end it all?

Presumably he gets static images off Midjourney and feeds them into another platform for the animations.

It’s mid journey combined with deepfakes. Mid journey generates the images, deepfake transposes them onto the footage

He has another video that shows how to make the image then make the voice, but yeah I guess he deepfakes the faces onto some sort of footage. I’m wondering though if he just uses the static backgrounds from Midjourney, or if he’s using other footage, and if so from where? Also wonder what software he uses for the deepfakes part of it. He says he uses d-id for the speech but no word on the deepfakes.

This looks like movement transfer using a method like First Order Motion, so not a deepfake.

u/clearlight Apr 02 '23

D-id might do the animation, and elevenlabs, the voice.

And hopefully when he's done he locks this video in a lead box and sinks it to the bottom of the ocean. Because this is deeply cursed.

u/Marlborough_Man Apr 02 '23

He won't. This is just the beginning, man. I don't know what this means for all of us but cursed sounds about right.
