Believe it or not, all these faces are fake. They have been synthesized by NVIDIA’s new AI algorithm, a generative adversarial network capable of automagically creating humans, cats, and even cars.

As I type this first article today for NTEB, I am doing it on a computer that uses an NVIDIA graphics card. NVIDIA is one of the world’s  largest producers of graphics cards with an emphasis on high-end gaming systems. They also create some of the most cutting-edge AI technology as well.

“And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.” Revelation 13:15 (KJV)

Now researchers at NVIDIA have reached a new level, the ability to create completely realistic human faces that don’t exist in real life. Regular readers of NTEB will know instantly where this article is going. Our real world is heading into a merger with the cyber world just like a baseball player will slide into second base. The two are rapidly becoming one, and soon we may not be able to tell the real from the fake.

Already we are being conditioned to speak to and interact with machines as if they were people. Siri, looks this up please. Alexa, I need to order more hamster food for Teddy. Amazingly, we will say “thank you” to the AI robot after the requested task is completed. Human sex with robots is already a booming business. Why is all this happening now?

It’s happening because the world is being prepared to enter into the time of Jacob’s trouble, which will  happen in the immediate aftermath of the Pretribulation Rapture of the Church. The time of Jacob’s trouble is going to be a crazy, nasty and scary time, where real life and cyber life will be indistinguishably merged together under Antichrist.

NVIDIA’s Scary AI Generates Humans That Look 100% Real

FROM TOM’S GUIDE: The technology works so well that we can expect synthetic image search engines soon — just like Google’s, but generating new fake images on the fly that look real. Yes, you know where that is going — and sure, it can be a lot of fun, but also scary. Check out the video. It truly defies belief:

According to NVIDIA, its GAN is built around a concept called “style transfer”. Rather than trying to copy and paste elements of different faces into a frankenperson, the system analyzes three basic styles — coarse, middle, and fine styles — and merges them transparently into something completely new.

Coarse styles include parameters such as pose, the face’s shape, or the hair style. Middle styles include facial features, like the shape of the nose, cheeks, or mouth. Finally, fine styles affect the color of the face’s features like skin and hair.

According to the scientists, the generator is “capable of separating inconsequential variation from high-level attributes” too, in order to eliminate noise that is irrelevant for the new synthetic face.

“Our algorithm is computationally efficient, flexible for numerous styles, and effective for stylizing images and videos,” the researchers stated in their paper. “Usually people only use style transfer for artistic purposes, but now people can use this model to achieve photorealistic results,” Liu explained.

For example, it can distinguish a hairdo from the actual hair, eliminating the former while applying the latter to the final photo. It can also specify the strength of how styles are applied to obtain more or less subtle effects.

Not only the generative adversarial network is capable of autonomously creating human faces, but it can do the same with animals like cats. It can even create new cars and even bedrooms.

NVIDIA’s system is not only capable of generating completely new synthetic faces, but it can also seamlessly modify specific features of real people, like age, the hair or skin colors of any person.

The applications for such a system are amazing. From paradigm-changing synthetic free-to-use image search pages that may be the end of stock photo services to people accurately previewing hair styling changes. READ MORE

Should You Be Scared? OpenAI Introduces Sora ‘Text-To-Video’ AI That Absolutely Stuns Social Media With Mind-Bending PhotoReality

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

OpenAI is launching a new video-generation model, and it’s called Sora. The AI company says Sora ‘can create realistic and imaginative scenes from text instructions.’

Social media right now is on fire, in a total state of shock over the new hyper-realistic videos created in under 30 second by an AI program called Sora from OpenAI. It is the most-realistic AI video you’ve ever seen, and text-to-video technology is still very much in it’s infancy. For a comparison, think of how different things had been if the first plane successfully flown at Kitty Hawk would have done 60 miles-per-hour instead of the 6.8 MPH it actually did. That would have made for a completely different development curve. That’s Sora, and she’s here to blow your mind.

“But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.” Daniel 12:4 (KJB)

We are right now in a period of time where AI programs like Sora can be given a text prompt like “show me two kittens eating tacos in a snowstorm in August”, and in under 30 seconds you are looking at that video. What does that mean? It means that from this moment on, no photo can be trusted, no video believed, there is zero guarantee that anything we are shown from this point on is actually real. These text-to-video creations are starting hyper-realistic, but in a few months to a year they will be indistinguishable from an actual video or movie. AI is like that old movie ‘The Blob’ with Steve McQueen in the 1950’s. It’s oozing out of every crack and crevice, and there is no where to go to get away from it. AI is of the Devil, and it’s here to prepare the world for the arrival of Antichrist.

Now, the really mind-blowing part of all this is that the videos are created from words, spoken or typed, and the AI ‘gives birth’ to the video. God created everything using words. AI so very much has the fingerprint of the Devil all over it. Avoid it for as long as you can, but fair warning, soon it will be impossible to avoid.

OpenAI introduces Sora, its text-to-video AI model

FROM THE VERGE: Sora is capable of creating “complex scenes with multiple characters, specific types of motion, and accurate details of the subject and background,” according to OpenAI’s introductory blog post. The text-to-video model allows users to create photorealistic videos up to a minute long — all based on prompts they’ve written.

The company also notes that the model can understand how objects “exist in the physical world,” as well as “accurately interpret props and generate compelling characters that express vibrant emotions.”

The model can also generate a video based on a still image, as well as fill in missing frames on an existing video or extend it. The Sora-generated demos included in OpenAI’s blog post include an aerial scene of California during the gold rush, a video that looks as if it were shot from the inside of a Tokyo train, and others. Many have some telltale signs of AI — like a suspiciously moving floor in a video of a museum — and OpenAI says the model “may struggle with accurately simulating the physics of a complex scene,” but the results are overall pretty impressive.

A couple of years ago, it was text-to-image generators like Midjourney that were at the forefront of models’ ability to turn words into images. But recently, video has begun to improve at a remarkable pace: companies like Runway and Pika have shown impressive text-to-video models of their own, and Google’s Lumiere figures to be one of OpenAI’s primary competitors in this space, too. Similar to Sora, Lumiere gives users text-to-video tools and also lets them create videos from a still image.

None of this is real either

Sora is currently only available to “red teamers” who are assessing the model for potential harms and risks. OpenAI is also offering access to some visual artists, designers, and filmmakers to get feedback. It notes that the existing model might not accurately simulate the physics of a complex scene and may not properly interpret certain instances of cause and effect. READ MORE

CaliExpress: World’s First Fully Autonomous AI-Powered Restaurant Is Set to Open in Southern California

For many years now, tech billionaires have been quietly, but furiously, working away in secret labs to perfect autonomous AI, and when it’s done it will seem like it came from nowhere all at once. It will be everywhere all at once, in everything, and for a moment it will seem like a blessing. But Artificial Intelligence is the opposite of that, it is coming to take over. CaliExpress by Flippy is just the opening salvo, a tasty tech appetizer if you’ll pardon the pun.

“Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.” Proverbs 1:31 (KJB)

All those dystopian movies of the past few decades have been mentally preparing us for the coming war between man and machine, a war that has its roots in the Tower of Babel. That war of course is a 7-year war that will feature the very latest in artificial intelligence, supercharged with the supernatural. By that point, all of us who are saved and sealed until the day of redemption will be gone, leaving those of you who’ve been left behind to figure it out. You can enjoy the Tribulation or get saved. Your choice.

CaliExpress By Flippy will deploy cutting-edge food tech, automating both grill and fry stations.

FROM TECH TIMES: Holding company Cali Group has joined forces with Miso Robotics, the innovator behind Flippy (the pioneering AI-powered robotic fry station), and PopID, a technology firm streamlining ordering and payments through biometrics. Together, they announced the upcoming launch of CaliExpress by Flippy, heralded as the world’s first fully autonomous restaurant. This establishment will deploy state-of-the-art food technology systems, automating both grill and fry stations by combining artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics.

Located in a prime retail spot in Pasadena, California, at 561 E. Green St., the new CaliExpress by Flippy will redefine the dining experience for guests.

Patrons will witness the robotic preparation of their meals after checking in with their PopID accounts at self-ordering kiosks, allowing for personalized order recommendations and seamless payments. The restaurant’s technological prowess promises an efficient and safe environment for employees. For customers, incorporating diverse technologies in CaliExpress by Flippy ensures the delivery of freshly prepared burgers at competitive prices.

A noteworthy feature is the grill robot, which grinds high-quality beef in real-time upon receiving an order, resulting in a l burger patty. Flippy, the renowned robotic fry station, adds to the menu by offering crispy, hot fries made from premium-grade potatoes.

“To our knowledge, this is the world’s first operating restaurant where both ordering and every single cooking process are fully automated,” John Miller, CEO of PopID and board member of Miso Robotics, said in a statement.

“The marriage of these various technologies to create the most autonomous restaurant in the world is the culmination of years of research, development, and investment in a family of revolutionary companies,” he added. READ MORE

VERY FAKE NEWS: Los Angeles Streaming News Outlet Channel 1 Will Feature AI-Generated Anchors Who Will Read News ‘Written’ By A Chatbot

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Channel 1, set to launch next year, plans to use AI-generated news anchors and digital doubles of real actors who had their bodies scanned reading chatbot created ‘news’.

Whether you realize it or not, Artificial Intelligence is taking over, and in fact has already set up shop. I don’t deny that with it comes some incredible advances in how we do stuff, but AI isn’t here to give us anything, AI is taking. What exactly is it taking? Control. Think about it for a moment. Artificial Intelligence is like a visitor from a foreign planet that we know very little about, and hope they will have our best interests at heart. Sounds like something from the Twilight Zone, right? That’s because it is.

“The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.” Proverbs 9:10 (KJB)

The episode of the Twilight Zone I am thinking of goes like this. An alien race comes to Earth, promising peace and sharing technology. A linguist and his team set out to translate the aliens’ language, using a book whose title they deduce is ‘To Serve Man.’ Sounds pretty good, right? The aliens serving man? Yeah, right up to the moment where they figure out the book is a cookbook, and man is on the menu! So you think about that while you get hooked on this ‘everything AI’ life we find ourselves in, and stay awake. There’s a signpost up ahead, your next stop..the Prophecy Zone.

This just in… First AI-generated NEWS ANCHORS will debut on US national station next year

FROM THE DAILY MAIL UK: Demonstration videos show anchors that talk, look, and move like real humans, but were designed on computers using artificial intelligence technology. Channel 1 plans to stream its news on TV apps and is set to add a translation feature to roll it out globally.

The outlet’s founder said that misuse of AI-generated news is inevitable, but Channel 1 aims to ‘get out in front of this and create a responsible use of the technology.’

Channel 1 plans to stream its news on TV apps and is set to add a translation feature to roll it out globally. The outlet’s founder told DailyMail.com that misuse of AI-generated news is inevitable, but Channel 1 aims to ‘get out in front of this and create a responsible use of the technology.’

The actual information contained in Channel 1’s reports will come from three sources: partnerships with yet-to-be-named legacy news outlets, commissioned freelance journalists, and AI-generated news reports drawn from trusted official sources like public records and government documents.

Mosam would not say which legacy news outlets have partnered with Channel 1. READ MORE

The aliens came bringing ‘peace and technology’ and all they wanted to do was to serve man. This is what AI in 2023 is.
