Named GANpaint Studio, the tool is available as a free demo. Rather than manually add a tree to an image, you can tell the tool where you want the object and it will add one that matches the scene. You can erase objects too, like stools from an image of a kitchen. It's still a work in progress, but the team hopes GANpaint Studio might one day edit video clips. If, for instance, an essential prop were left out of a film scene, editors could use AI to add it in later.
While GANpaint Studio makes it easy to create fake images, it could also help computer scientists learn to spot them. "You need to know your opponent before you can defend against it," said Jun-Yan Zhu, who co-authored a paper on the tool. The researchers will present their work at a conference next month. In the meantime, you can give GANpaint Studios a spin.
