#Keras tip: you actually need to specify batch size again when you run model.predict() after model.fit(), otherwise it defaults to a batch size of 32. Depending on your model this could be too small, leading to incredibly slow inference. Common online examples do not seem to emphasize this at all.
由兩年前開始,人工智能已經可以做到換臉的效果。*隨著技術的成熟和普及,一些…不太見得光的用途亦開始出現。網上社群Reddit現時有一個群組專門把著名女星的臉配上成人影片之上。該社群還推出了一個應用程式把換臉程序大幅簡化,只要用戶找到影片,按幾個鈕就可以利用家中電腦的顯視卡製作影片,無須對背後的技術有任何瞭解。難怪網媒Motherboard的報導標題為「We Are Truly Fucked」,因為根本無法阻止有心入把別人當成對象製作影片。
從市場發展來看,這技術應該有利成人影業。現時的製作需要願意放下身段又有一定相貌身材的藝人,當換臉或人造臉成風,那「露肉」藝人的相貌就不重要了。雖說好此道的觀眾亦可在家自行製作,但過程耗時之餘,次次換臉不換身也會厭吧?反過來說,藝人「露肉」價值應該會下降。反正有心的觀眾可以自行製作,藝人倒不如明哲保身更好。

太太任教的中學想搞電競比賽,結果因為家長反對而作罷。這些家長實在太落伍了,今時今日電競絕對是專業運動,職業選手有大公司贊助又有大量粉絲,絕對是人生贏家。
E-Sports is still a taboo among many Hong Kong parents, who hold the outdated view that gaming is just waste of time with little reward.
