ByteDance, TikTok's parent company, has developed OmniHuman, a sophisticated AI model capable of generating realistic videos from a single image. This technology surpasses existing methods by producing lifelike depictions of humans and animals engaging in various actions, based on minimal input. While not yet publicly available, sample videos showcasing its capabilities have impressed experts. Concerns exist regarding potential misuse, including the creation of deepfakes for malicious purposes, but ByteDance plans to implement safety measures if OmniHuman is released. The AI's training involved extensive video data, sparking discussion about the ethical implications of using such material.
