DeepFaceLab is a Python-based deep learning tool described as the leading software for creating deepfakes, videos where one person's face is convincingly replaced with another's. It uses deep neural networks to learn what a face looks like from many example images, then transfers that face onto video footage of a different person, matching lighting, angle, and expressions. The tool supports three main use cases: replacing one face with another, de-aging a person's face to make them look younger, and replacing an entire head. It requires significant time to learn the workflow and get good results, there is no automatic "make it work" button. Skills in video editing software like After Effects or DaVinci Resolve are also helpful for post-processing. The software runs on Windows and uses TensorFlow, CUDA (Nvidia GPU acceleration), and DirectX. You would use DeepFaceLab for creative video production, visual effects work, film restoration, or educational exploration of AI face-swapping technology. It has been used by well-known YouTube and TikTok creators for entertainment content. A companion project called DeepFaceLive supports real-time face swapping for live streaming or video calls.
Python tool for creating deepfakes by swapping faces in videos using deep learning. Requires skill and time to master, but produces convincing results.
Mainly Python. The stack also includes Python, TensorFlow, CUDA.
Use it freely, but any project you distribute that includes this code must also be GPL-licensed and open source.
Setup difficulty is rated hard, with roughly 1day+ to a first successful run.
Mainly developer.
