The latest trend in tech: GAN apps
This newsletter was brought to you byGetViktorThe latest trend in tech: GAN apps
Remember how we wrote about GAN, the technology behind the creepy fake face generator This Person Does Not Exist?
The TLDR: When you click on the website, it generates an image of a person’s face. Refresh the page, and you’ll get another face. But none of these people are real. They’re generated entirely by AI.
Needless to say, it's a trend now. This week, a whole new set of GAN use cases launched on Product Hunt, because the internet needs this #content!
Unsurprisingly, someone created This Cat Does Not Exist, which generates — you guessed it — photos of AI-generated cats.
“Please do this with food” - Nabeena
“Next would be dogs” - Arunkumar
“This is why I pay for my internet” - Amrith
Today, it's Which Face is Real?, which lets you guess if an image is a real human or GAN.
Go forth and create more GAN apps, Internet. Happy Friday!

Samsung's Bixby Home smart speaker is about to get released. Audible launched Spanish audio books, so you now listen to "Harry Potter y la Piedra Filosofal.” This on-demand storage company got a $200M investment from SoftBank. And Flexport raised another *$1B* from SoftBank at a $3.2B valuation.

They kept using words like colleague, coworker, team member. One CEO called it the glue holding their e-commerce business together, which is a lot, but also… you see why. It lives in Slack and plugs into 3,000+ tools, so instead of jumping between tabs, you just ask for the thing. Pull Stripe against HubSpot, check Sentry alerts, spin up a campaign brief, build a landing page, send a report upstairs. It all happens there.
It has already hit top 5 on Product Hunt with 130 comments, is SOC 2 certified, and your data does not train models.One user said it was the first time AI felt like a real coworker, which is either exciting or slightly concerning depending on your week.
