We watched it together, and in it, Google animated static photos of her over the last 5 years. It included the typical 3D field effect, but what was disturbing was that it also animated her body and her face. We watched video after video of Google making her likeness smile and turn her head towards the camera.
They have to be using facial data from her other photos to make her smile in photos where she was not originally smiling, tilt her head seductively in photos where she never did that, etc.
I assume this is a new feature that they're beta testing, because I can't find any information on it whatsoever.
They essentially created a deep fake of her, without her permission, and then made this deep fake do things that she never did.
I can't imagine what PM at Google ever thought this was a good idea for a feature. If you're productizing AI, you need to be extremely careful that you're not violating your user's personal boundaries.
Has anyone else seen this yet?
