What do you guys think of this kind of software? I think it has the power to change certain distinctive traits of one's racial appearance, on the grounds of finding a look that has stronger statistic backing as "pleasant".
In any case, this has obvious implications for online dating sites, to me it makes the whole idea even less promising for finding veritable information about the person behind the online member.
The other thing is, it consistently updates one's appearance to a certain set of dimensions that are deemed by the database as universally pleasant. If it becomes used on models or actors that appear in magazines or even films, it'll probably be a notch up of the education we already have by our media of "what is beautiful".
Anyway, I thought it was interesting to share.
