If the 3D morphable model is extended to incorporate the whole body then I guess actors can lead a peaceful life ;)
Remember poor Adrian Brody had to lose nearly 30 pounds to prepare for the role in The Pianist.
This video didn't go quite the way I was hoping. I trusted they were going to morph Audrey Hepburn and the Mona Lisa for the perfect white woman, and then revisit Tom Hanks to morph him with Leonardo, producing the face of a man whose probable IQ was Leonardo's + Forrest Gump's divided by 2.

AI is still a distant dream but once it becomes a reality then maybe they can come up with an IQ morph software.
LOL!
