Generated Media’s Anonymizer presented me with a grid of about 20 look-alikes, with the option to view more. I scrolled

With its massive database of images, Generated Media is now turning its attention to consumers. With a tool launched today called Anonymizer, the company allows you to upload a real photo of your face and receive a variety of fake faces that look similar to your own. You can then use the fakes instead of your real face on social media or anywhere else that you need to post a photo on the public internet. The fake photos are free for personal use and come with an option to use a transparent background.

Grubhub and its competitors still have all sorts of shady conditions that stop tips from going directly to the driver. Forget to tie your shoes before you leave? No tip (A joke, as of right now…).

Business owners — give yourself a reasonableness gut check. Nobody expects us to pay low-skill workers $75,000 a year. But there should never be a situation where we are snatching tips from people over trivialities.

If you’ve posted a photo of yourself online in the past few years, there’s a good chance Clearview AI has slurped it up and added it to the company’s massive facial recognition database of more than 3.1 billion images. The New York Times said that Clearview could “end privacy as we know it.” In January, I got my hands on my own Clearview AI profile, and its contents freaked me out.

The fake photos, Generated Media says, should look enough like you that contacts will find them believable. But because they’re not actually you, if Clearview or another facial recognition company adds your fake face to its database, it won’t be able to use the fake face to find the real you. Generated Media says users can swap out their photos for new fakes “at least every day” for an extra measure of anonymity.

A wide variety of legal and legislative challenges have been mounted against Clearview. My own article was cited in the American Civil Liberties Union’s landmark class-action lawsuit against the company. But even if lawmakers rein in Clearview AI, stopping facial recognition online is like playing whack-a-mole: Another clone of the company will simply appear in its place.

internet were controlled by a few small companies. The future of the internet may very well be owned by its users and controlled by nobody. In other words, we’re moving from centralized ownership to decentralized ownership. This transition is fascinating to me.

Many years back, I worked at a Play-It-Again sports franchise. They paid me the bare minimum wage. I worked several night shifts each week from 4–8. Then, it took us 15–20 minutes to close down the store.

Given the ubiquity of facial recognition online, what can consumers do to keep their faces out of massive surveillance databases? Synthetic Content startup Generated Media thinks it has a solution: Replace your face with a technologically advanced fake created by a neural network. The fake gives people a sense for your appearance while keeping your actual face anonymous.

Generated Media specializes in creating artificial faces. To do this, it uses a technology called generative adversarial networks (GANs), which pit two warring neural networks against each other. In Generated Media’s case, as the networks duke it out, one network (called the generative network) gets better and better at generating artificial faces. GANs technology is so good that it can produce fake faces that easily fool humans into thinking they’re real. The company made a splash in a recent New York Times article about the tech behind fake faces.

GANs can also perform this feat on a massive scale. Generated Media is less than a year old and has already created more than 2 million fake faces. The faces represent people of every possible age and appearance. They look completely real, but the people they depict don’t actually exist and never have. Generated Media licenses them as stock photos on its website Generated.Photos and uses them as training data to reduce bias in other A.I. systems.

When I got my first paycheck, I noticed they’d excluded that 15–20 minutes from my paycheck. I mentioned it to the boss man and he said, “Well, I don’t pay you guys for your breaks.”

In an interview, Tyler Lastovich, head of strategy for Generated Media, told me that the company built the Anonymizer after he was “personally approached on LinkedIn by someone using a Generated photo as their avatar” and after the company saw “many, many more [of its photos used as profile images] on Twitter.” Others have attempted to create tools that use A.I. to obscure the identities of protestors and activists online by subtly altering their profile photos. But Clearview told the New York Times that these tools do not work to trick its systems. A totally fake photo like the ones created by Generated Media would likely be a safer solution.

I thought, “I don’t take any breaks?” But I was too timid to press the issue for fear of losing my job. No, that little 15–20 minutes of work didn’t make or break me, but it felt dehumanizing to be expected to work for free when he was making a fortune with his store.
