I'm genuinely sceptical. How do they ensure the same looking person is generated each time? From any perspective? You can create fake images of a specific person precisely because you have a dataset of ground truth images.
If it is true... Then yeah. Modelling is now a dead job. And weirdly we're back to pre-photo advertising when everything was just drawn.
I'm guessing they just generate a bunch of pictures, pick the closest and fix the rest in photoshop.
Not like real models aren't already often photoshopped to (near) unrecognizability.
