"I was going to tell a science fiction story about faceswapping, and mass blackmail. Then the news broke about unethical faceswapping videos, and software designed and marketed for creating them: and I realised the future had arrived faster than I thought." - Tom Scott, Feb 2018

This makes me wonder if anyone has tried to pass off an AI generated photo of themselves as a passport photo or some other important official license/document yet. How would that go from a legal-trouble standpoint I wonder?

A while ago a collective in germany used a software to merge the faces of two people into one photo and used it on their passport. On one hand the idea was to evade facial-recognition software which uses the passports photo. On the other to use the passport to smuggle refugees into europe by plane.

I am not sure the software was based on Machine learning but would strongly suspect it.

Totally not using your photos as training data.

Tbh as a young dev without a lot of experience in today's market (added because of some of the comments), you need to have a professional LinkedIn persona, and that's true with many jobs. I can see this being useful for those who can't afford/don't have access to a way to get a good headshot.

That being said I'd be wary of what service you use to make a headshot, because a lot of them will probably use your data to train their AI, and/or steal the data from your cellphone if it's an app
