Correct, eventually this kind of stuff will put a lot of stock photography models out of work.
More interesting though is the use of the underlying technology (generative adversarial networks) to replicate various types of things from music to faces to theoretical mutating diseases that may be cured before they come into reality to cancer research.
The scary thing is that these generative adversarial networks are being highly adopted in areas that we don't fully understand yet and research has shown they can amplify biases or prejudice in both photographic and written material they are trained on, take that a few steps further and we better hope that if this shit becomes sentient one day that it doesn't get the ability to hurt us.
