How does one create a deepfake?

If you know some basics deep learning, you can find source code on github to play with. You will also find tutorials made by communities of developers and users.

Otherwise, if you look deep enough on the Internet, there are already websites offering deepfake as-a-service for a rather low price.

Not all these tools were developed for malicious purposes. Quite the opposite. But today it is up to everyone of us how this tech get utilised. And while it's becoming easier and cheaper to get realistic synthetic imagery, with better tools day by day, it is not yet obvious how we will cope with fake videos in our society.

Has anyone worked on an high frequency trading stuff here? I would be keen to learn from you!

What do you think? are ICOs just hype?

I was curious, has anyone else here moved away from SF to start a startup? What was the experience like entering international markets?

Thanks Ranidu, Justin, and the Whale team for creating such an awesome product! Has anyone experienced any other platforms where real life was the same?

wow that's pure hustle! you logged int about 900 boxes then? :)

Quite a bit more. This is from my jump box:

$ wc -l ~/.ssh/known_hosts 1240 /root/.ssh/known_hosts

Thanks for this! Would you mind diving a bit deeper on how you were able to drive $200K in sales? That is impressive and congrats!

Thank you, most of the sales were generated through affiliates, our profits after the launch were about 95k. If you check out jvnotifypro or jvzoo.com, you will get an idea.

To drive $200k was not simple, we partnered up with a person who had a record of 6 figure launches and had a good relationship with JVs.

To be honest, most of the tech savvy people would be hating jvzoo type audience but the reality is if you have good following you can generate good revenue from your side projects and feed that revenue into your main Saas startups for bootstrapping. This is something that we are doing without involving any VC for our core product.

One another example is a shopping cart product is Samcart.com, the co-founder Brian also captured the top Jvs for his launch including Jeff Walker, Todd Gross etc. These Jvs I have mentioned actually have the similar type of audience like Jvzoo.

Also, on the Saas side, one of my buddy Thomas from pagemodo (previous co-founder) did a similar thing while running the startup. And later he sold his venture for $114 million.

And the Voluum founder Robert gryn used the same approach to scale his product.

Have you checked out GrowSumo.com? They were YC S15. Luke and Bryn are awesome guys. They got us connected with a handful of influencers that promoted my first startup – www.goodaudience.com. Then their software tracked monthly commissions and payouts.

You need to mention that they charge $300/month minimum. Their feature set seems pretty low for the high price...

Thanks sherm8n. Happy to chat to anyone about best practices, but our platforms lets you set commission and make payouts.

How do you get consulting work?

That tends to be a brew your own situation comparable in difficulty to creating a business from scratch. If you have to ask that, you will probably be better off getting a part time job or signing up for some service to do piece work through them (like UpWork, but preferably not actually UpWork).

Well, too late for that :)
