The development of neural networks is associated with many dangers for a person — the loss of a job, the facilitation of the work of hackers, the rise of machines in the end. But the beginning of the end came from where we definitely did not expect it — from photos of cats.

Neural networks will soon take away from humanity almost the last joy — the monopoly on the cat content. Computer algorithms have learned to generate realistic photos of cats that don't exist.

For a couple of years on the Internet there is a website This Cat Does Not Exist (This cat does not exist). Each site update is a new picture of a non-existent cat.

Previous attempts to create a cat failed-the pets generated by neural networks looked like monsters.

But now our cat content is in danger. The animals in the pictures are indistinguishable from the real ones!

Okay, it's still a problem.

There is a short checklist that will help you distinguish a picture of a fake cat from a real one (but this is not accurate).

The last stronghold of people — videos with cats. When AI learns to create them, the era of human dominance on the Internet can be considered a passed stage.
