Lu Zheng's words made Zhou Mobei's heart race.
It's not that he didn't know, it's that even if he blurred it out, it wouldn't make a difference.
That particular website prohibits uploading videos with blurred faces, especially faces; otherwise, the upload will fail.
Zhou Mobei didn't want to make a big deal out of it, so he uploaded it to a special website.
As it turned out, the thing he feared most and least wanted to see still happened.
But that wasn't what scared him. What truly terrified him was how Lu Zheng knew so much about this matter.
It seemed as if Lu Zheng had deliberately set them up, as if he were setting a trap for him.
The more Zhou Mobei thought about these things, the faster his heart beat.
Seeing his grim expression, Lu Zheng chuckled and said, "Jiang Li'er has always said she loves you, but now this woman wants to send you in. She's harming you!"
"You're talking nonsense!"
Before Zhou Mobei could speak, Jiang Lier couldn't hold back any longer. She pointed at Lu Zheng's nose and cursed, "Stop talking nonsense! Mobei and I have always been true love. Mobei, don't listen to his rubbish."
However, the reporters around them looked at each other in bewilderment.
"What? Zhou Mobei orchestrated this? Then there must be some other hidden story here?"
"I've heard that Zhou Mobei and his group have always been at odds with Lu Zheng."
"Wait, how did Lu Zheng know that Zhou Mobei uploaded it?"
"Mr. Lu, could you please tell me what exactly happened?"
"Mr. Lu, could you please answer our questions?"
The group kept whispering among themselves.
These people weren't just interested in the news; they were also driven by curiosity.
Does Lu Zheng know this so clearly? If this causes any impact, it will have the biggest effect on his reputation, and may even cause trouble for his company. It's a problem that ordinary people can see, so why can't Lu Zheng see it?
Unless he has some other reason.
Looking at the reporters who were eagerly asking questions, Lu Zheng said, "Since everyone wants to know, I might as well tell you. I originally planned to wait until this matter became more public."
Immediately afterward, Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Brother Chang, go and get the computer."
Chang Ping nodded, turned around, and walked into the company. A short while later, he brought out a computer and started typing away on it.
Ming Xiang said, "Miss Xia already talked to us about this video last night, saying that Jiang Li'er gave it to her. But I believe my boyfriend wouldn't do such a thing, because Miss Xia is a million times prettier than the woman in the video."
"So my partner, Brother Chang, and I, along with a group of engineers in our company who are good at developing AI programs, worked overnight to create a facial recognition program."
"After our program identified the man in the video, we found that he was someone else. Someone had used our AI technology and combined it with facial recognition."
"Wait!" Zhou Mobei shouted hurriedly, "You're talking nonsense! Even if it's AI technology, then tell me, how did you separate the real person's face from the synthesized AI face? What if you're just creating something fake for public relations purposes? Who can say for sure?"
The reporters looked at each other in bewilderment.
Immediately someone said, "That's right, Mr. Zhou is correct."
"Mr. Lu, how do we know if you've processed it again?"
Lu Zheng gave Zhou Mobei a mocking sneer: "Fake? Aren't you, Zhou Mobei, the technical director of Jiang's Group? What? It seems like you, as the director, don't know much about technology. Anyone who develops software or studies computer simulation knows that this kind of technology cannot be redeveloped."
Because the code is already so flawed, no matter how perfect it is, the programs will be difficult to be compatible with each other. Even if the developers were to create a code-overlay anti-code program, they would not be able to do so.
Otherwise, videos like these would immediately become chaotic and turn into a mess.
How could Zhou Mobei not understand such a simple principle?
It's understandable that these reporters don't understand, since they're not from the technical department and it's perfectly normal for them not to know about these complicated technical things.
But Zhou Mobei's statement is somewhat far-fetched.
For a moment, the reporters turned their attention back to Zhou Mobei.
Indeed, didn't he say he was the director of the research and development department of the Jiang Group?
These directors may just sit in their offices drinking tea on weekdays. Perhaps all they need to do is issue orders and assign tasks, without having to develop any programs themselves.
However, for someone like a technical director, they may not have to do it, but they must understand it.
This guy seems to know nothing.
Under the intense scrutiny of so many reporters, Zhou Mobei's face flushed red and then turned pale.
"You...you're talking nonsense!"
Jiang Li'er scolded Lu Zheng: "Do you think I don't know whether Mo Bei understands technology or not? But you, Lu Zheng, haha, you got to the top all by relying on women. What are you pretending to be?"
Lu Zheng ignored her and simply said, "You can just invite any technician over, even a recent college graduate in information and communication technology. Let them come and ask around."
Isn't it obvious now who's telling the truth?
Seeing that Zhou Mobei was struggling to speak, Lu Zheng continued, "If you can't say it, then it's our turn to speak."
He turned his head to look at Changping again, while also making room for the computer.
Chang Ping chuckled and pushed the computer over, saying, "This! See? Actually, it's not difficult to disassemble this thing. Since it's AI technology, the logic is just facial overlay."
"No matter how advanced the AI facial overlay is, it's just image processing."
"Anyone who knows Photoshop should be very clear about the meaning of layers. However, the person who improved this AI technology is also a talent. How come we didn't think of that? He has created a new guide for our AI."
Chang Ping was also smiling as he spoke.
This is also a way of telling Jiang Lier and Zhou Mobei that they should thank them for their "generous reminder".
Both Jiang Lier and Zhou Mobei's eyelids kept twitching.
Since Lu Zheng and the others have made their point so clear, it really means they're doomed.
Jiang Li'er asked in a slightly hoarse voice, "Then...so what?"
Chang Ping smiled and said, "Since it's a layer overlay, as long as the playback frequency reaches a certain speed, the overlay of the video face layers will produce a different sense of overlay."
“Videos are images played at high speed, but they are not quite the same as images. Once an image is drawn in Photoshop, it is difficult to separate it back to its original form; you can simply merge the layers.”
"However, this kind of big data computing model is not feasible because it is equivalent to capturing images in real time. If the layers are merged, people need to process these photos one by one. For example, this video is half an hour long. Even if we don't consider the fastest speed, but just take a speed of 60 frames per second, it would require processing 10,800 images."
"I simply don't believe anyone can process so many photos one by one."
