Real-Time Face Swapping with DeepFace AI

A few weeks ago, a captivating story was shared about an individual who claimed to transform into a cute girl in real-time. Despite pinching the face or eating, the transformed face remained consistent. Many were intrigued and requested a tutorial on the tool used for this transformation. This guide will walk through the process of installing and running the tool, allowing users to use any face in real-time, leveraging the power of DeepFace AI technology.

Getting Started

The channel, started a year ago, has received numerous requests for this tutorial. This real-time face swapper can sync facial expressions and movements, but it does not alter hair. For those looking to transform into a cute girl, acquiring a wig is recommended. These are affordable and can be found on platforms like AliExpress.
