Thought hadn't occurred to me. But now that it has, I am not sure it'd work very well.
You have no idea how many of these I try and end up throwing out.
I figured if you got the "neutral face" thing in this video, at least it would actually fit.

A Celt Z in every home!
Well, facial expression is part of it (and Celt Z's seems to fit smiling faces better, actually - at least she complains about her nose less when the subject is smiling - probably because the source photo I'm using of her is smiling), but another big part of it is dimensions, or more precisely, aspect ratio of the face. For example Jun didn't really fit well at all on Tila Tequila in Between Two Ferns. And I've referenced how faces of the wrong dimensions make me look like other actors, too. But also, I had to really pick my shot because I've found one thing that absolutely KILLS the program is if the subject moves something (a hand, a microphone, etc) in front of their face even briefly. The program doesn't deal well with that.
In unrelated news, my ability to deepfake will be severely curtailed this week because I'll be on the road and I don't have Adobe Premiere on my laptop. So I'll be limited to only the stuff provided within the reface app itself.

Could always secretly record at least 10 seconds of video of your wife and then email it to Gas, I guess?

10 seconds does nothing.
A still picture is all I need for this.... for the more advanced stuff, I need 20 minutes... with every possible phoneme, every possible facial expression, and every possible camera angle.
I don't think anyone would want this. Sure, the house will be clean and you'll be well-fed, but I am going to sass the shit out of you. Probably, like, Rosie the Robot crossed with Peg Bundy, sans the smoking.
Let the buyer beware.
Once again, a good concept, but some parts match better than others.
shit..I already get that without the cooking and cleaning thrown in. It'd be a step up

Yeah, I agree completely. But like I said, I was limited to items supplied within the app itself, and the message conveyed by the lyrics seemed particularly apropos for making deepfakesOnce again, a good concept, but some parts match better than others.
Mr Z is clearly a man of rare & uncommon good sense.I asked Mr. Z to explain why this would be bad idea, and, I quote,
"I'M NOT ANSWERING THIS IT'S A TRAP" *picks up phone upside down* "OH HELLO WHAT'S THE PROBLEM HONEY I HAVE TO TAKE THIS BUSINESS BUSINESS BUSINESS".
Clearly a satisfied customer.
That's a deal I would take.
Close, but not quite.
