You can make anyone's face say and do anything you want. A fake face proves nothing. It reveals complete and utter uselessness to have your face represent you.<br><br>The Face: Your representative of your true identity. You better be prepared to back it up, because face alone is 0% convincing. If technology could only convince us to the tune of .01% of our decisions, the marvelous would look mundane compared to the deepfake.<br><br>Forgive me, but isn't it about time to stop prioritizing faces? Acting, vlogging, politics, facebook, tinder, and many, many more. What if we realized we could make the decision to create a world in which faces were much less important? A world beyond the meat husk that contains the real you. All those hours of your life wasted on dying skin. Your face is useless. Beauty fades. It's time to recycle and reinvent.
