hello guys and gals me mudahar and you know you can't trust anything you see on the internet ladies and gentlemen uh I want to start off by showing you the most trending GitHub deep fake tool right now that's been all over the news it's been uh kind of shared around and it's scary easy to actually set up so I wanted to dive into it and show you how it works and show you the real fear of believing anything on the internet anymore now uh the other day I saw this post uh number one trending GitHub where they were just showing like Elon Musk deep faked onto an individual like literally on camera and this was all happening live so there was no like long 20 minute process to make this video it was actually happening with a live capture of somebody's webcam now to give you an idea that is insanity okay imagine joining a zoom call or something and finding out whoa you just got scammed I mean there is an entire like literal story of like you know literally this year February of this year Finance years scammed of $25. 6 million after meeting with deep fakes okay a Hong Kong based Finance worker was scammed into paying 200 million Hong Kong dollars which is 25 million 25. 6 million us doar in a virtual meeting with deep fakes okay literally he thought he was talking to actual business people in reality it was just Tom Dick and Harry using a deep fake tool so here I've got the actual thing open deep fake deep deep live cam which is the next leap in real time face swapping and video deep fake technology so if you look at this actual video tool over here you can see that somebody has deep faked Mark Zuckerberg onto them and uh you know of course if you refresh you can see other people like JD Vance for instance uh and then of course it just keeps going from there now you might look at this and be like ah it looks a little fake muda but in the middle of a call Imagine like somebody who has no idea of technology or anything Falls for this so I look into this stuff and it says it apparently works locally on your CPU your Nvidia Cuda so really any Nvidia GPU the better the GPU the more CA course the better and of course if you got an apple silicon laptop or a Mac Pro with Apple's Hardware you can do it right there as well so what they said is they've got realtime face swapping oneclick video deep fakes multiplatform and what they say is ethical use safeguards so built-in checks to prevent processing of inappropriate content so I went to their actual thing and by the way it is a trending repository it literally is like on the list like number five where it says realtime face swap and oneclick video deep fake today alone it has 1,600 Stars so I go over to their actual trending Depot over here and of course you can see boom boom boom you've got the whole Elon Musk demo there and what they actually have said is please use this software responsibly while abiding by local laws the developers of the software are aware of it possible unethical applications and are committed to take preventative measures against them I want to say that that's CU I went to the credit section and they use something called GSU DRM for uncensoring groups if you open it up you can literally like create deep fake NSFW pieces I mean even in the software alone they have a tick for NSFW so I don't know what kind of ethical safeguards they have so how do you get this thing up and running you might be wondering well if you're on Windows and I'm going to basically set this for people who are using Windows 10 or 11 just because I think that's where most of the user base is most people even watching if you're on Linux this whole process you probably understand how to do it so one thing you need is python so you go to python.
org and you basically go to the downloads Tab and according to their GitHub they say they need version 3. 10 so inside over here you want to scroll down and look for version 3. 10 in this list and boom right here from October 4th 2021 you want to download that and basically install version 310.
com is that safe honestly always run any of the software with like actual care uh just because you know you never know what you're running especially you know stuff off of GitHub uh I'm in a virtual machine so I really don't care uh what the software is going to do but I would wager to have Extreme Caution I am not responsible for anything you run on your system okay if you don't trust it don't run it so inside over here you want to type in py just to make sure python works and you can see that I've got version just basically get out of python right there now inside here you want to do you want to get PIP so basically what you're going to do over here is you're going to go look up pip on Google and usually it be like https Pip piper. this pip documentation and over here you're going to go into it and effectively it's going to tell you underneath the windows option to make sure you type in the command underneath your terminal like we just opened py- M Ure pip uh D two dashes and upgrade okay so you're going to pass these arguments you're going to make sure all these requirements are satisfied and then you're going to download this script get PIP dopy so from this actual page you can rightclick save the link as and just save it in any specific folder so for instance on my desktop I have it saved in py install so if you want to navigate to that entire area underneath a terminal type in LS to view what uh directories you can go into to so I have to go into my desktop because it's on my desktop so CD desktop and then of course LS again but if you know the actual folder like we saw Pi install go to CD Pi install hit enter and over here you can type in pi and then get- pip or or pip py so as you run this directory in again administrator mode it'll install pip as that dependency now next thing you know you'll need is git now underneath Windows you can go to get- scc. com but more importantly go to that download for windows inside download for Windows if you have a tool known as wi get and if you're on Windows 11 and I think even 10 you should it's like a Windows uh package installer tool so all you see is this command highlight that right click copy and what you do in your command processor or Powershell you want to paste that in there hit enter and it's going to download that for you now I've already got it installed but it'll go through the whole process of setting up git for you next you need ff- or sorry ffmpeg and this links to a YouTuber's video known as troubleshoot and he's created one simple command line you need so again underneath a Powershell or that terminal right copy this whole iirm FFM Peg tc.
HD and you can paste that in here hit enter actually wait it's not reporting yeah there it is I just need to enter that way and it'll just basically handle it for you it'll do it'll install all the dependencies and it'll ask you which version you want for just safety sake just do the full version and type in three and it'll go through that process for you so next you need Visual Studio 2022 runtimes so you go over here and it takes you to Microsoft C++ build tools so you want to download these tools and you want to just run them and it'll allow you to download right from Microsoft these visual installer dependencies so it's not explained well in this read me but I'm going to show you exactly what you need to click what it'll ask you is Visual Studio build tools 2022 so I've already got it installed but usually it'll give you a screen that looks like this what you want to do is make sure you tick development or desktop development with C++ once you have that ticked you can install that and it'll be like 8 gigs but it will install all of the tools and uh what you need for again running this repository now at this point we're going to create a new workspace and actually get this camera software working so make a new folder on your desktop and call it something like live cam for instance now you want to have around I want to say 40 gigs of free space because we're going to need a lot of scratch to work with just to get things situated and ready to go so open up this folder right here and this is something located literally on your desktop now to navigate to that folder because we're at the user directory and whatever your username is do CD desktop all right and you can hit the tab key so it autocompletes for you and that way you'll know that that folder actually exists versus trying to go crazy hit enter and then do CD type in Li for a livecam hit Dash and it'll tell you that you can go to the livecam directory now if you type in LS nothing exists but at this point we're going to type in git clone and we're going to copy this URL from here in this repository now what that'll do is it'll actually clone that g deep lifecam repository so we can work with that now at this point do CD and type in dash and it'll take you to the next folder the repository you just cloned so at this point you want to download these two models gfp Gan and ion swapper and then what you do is download those two uh files go into that deep live deep live cam folder your repository and in that models folder just Place those two files there so these aren't really big files like 270 Megs 340 megabytes these are just models and at this moment in time go back to the terminal and all you want to do is type in PIP install d r requirements. txt but before we go into that you want to set up a virtual environment now before we continue we need something known as a virtual environment so we run you know not across many issues or something as we proceed through this project so here on the actual terminal as I'm in that desktop livecam deep livecam folder we want to type in py- M okay and then we're going to type in venv and then come up with a name like I guess live cam for instance right and then just hit enter and what you'll notice is a new folder is getting made known as live cam this is the virtual environment that we need to activate this virtual environment all we're basically going to do is type in in/ livecam and then we're going to go in before we hit enter we're going to type in SC hit Dash it'll take us to scripts and then at this moment we're going to type in activate and hit enter and you'll notice that now you have this little live cam that denotes that you're actually in your virtual environment now we can actually proceed through and call upon those requirements now one thing they don't mention in this read me and one issue that I came across was keeping a lot of the build stuff that I needed updated so one actual thing you should add right after you get into your virtual environment is Type in the words all right you want to go in and do pip install Das upgrade and then you want to do upgrade pip you want to upgrade setup tools and you want to upgrade wheel so again because you're an administrator hit enter it's going to meet all these requirements it's going to you know remove old packages and update everything so as this this is done everything is you know up to date and we can now proceed with actually running those requirements actually one mistake right here it says could not install packages due to an OS error I didn't actually run this in a uh administrator so that's pretty simple now because we've upgraded and kept everything there everything seems to work we have no issues everything is running at the administrator level now to get things going you type in PIP install d r requirements. text and as you hit enter it's going to basically collect all of this information maybe you have it cashed I've already done this before and it's just going to build for you so this moment in time you can sit back grab a beverage maybe eat a sour boy strip I don't know and call it a day all right you're going to come back once this is done and then you can actually start with all of them now like a '90s cooking show I've already done this well in advance so I've got my own directory over here with a bunch of video files that were all generated using this tool but to give you anidea idea I'm going to open up my version and I'm going to show you how this runs so once everything is good and ready to go inside your virtual environment all you have to do is type in the words python run.
