Man of steel's Mustache: Cheap AI vs Hollywood special effects.
When 2017 superhero movie Justice League went through $25 million worth of “extensive reshoots,” there was one particularly unexpected hurdle: Henry Cavill’s mustache. The actor, who plays Superman in the DC universe, had grown the mustache for his role in Mission: Impossible 6 But when reshoots for Justice League came around, he couldn’t just shave the thing off, so it had to be digitally edited out. It didn't looked great. But can cheap AI do better?
In the video on internet user shows how the latest machine learning-powered image manipulation techniques handle the task of facial topiary. The results? Its Pretty good! At least, pretty good at a low resolution and when compared to one particularly dire shot.
The important thing, though, is that the AI method is cheap. It’s not clear exactly how much it cost Warner Bros to remove Cavill’s mustache, but it was certainly more than the price of a mid range PC and half a day’s worth of tinkering which is all that needed.
