You Can 'Virtually' Become Most Anyone In Real Time


Using recently developed technology 
you can virtually tap into video 
and 
make someone in it appear to mimic your own facial expressions 
and 
lip movements- 
in real time.

Where is this all about to lead
or
mislead?

With millions, perhaps even billions of people
still blind to what they saw on 9/11 
what could we be about to face with this type of technology? 

Is it a novel idea or a dangerous one?

What possibilities do you see that may lie ahead?


Among other possibilities
I suspect the combining of many emerging technologies
will soon lead to the long awaited arrival of extraterrestrials.

We've had decades of  grooming our notion of what they should look like-
Check.

Less of a notion on how they talk or look while they talk-
Check.

Heck, they could talk with their feet
which then might finally answer Maxwell Smart's shoe-phone.

Okay,
so I kid and that one is pretty unlikely,
but the point is
there are a lot of people
out there
that (want to) believe extraterrestrials exist
so it would be pretty easy to get them to see what you want them to see
and
not knowing exactly what to expect
will make many more likely to accept what they see and hear as real
casting aside all sensibility and reason.

It wouldn't be the first time we shouldn't have believed something but did
or still do...

And perhaps most significantly-
We have no preconceived notion on what they sound like-
no particular voice to recognize or relate to
so
no need to match up any particular voice
giving those composing it quite a creative license-
Check.

Yes indeedy.
I can definitely see something like that happening.
How about you?
