This makes me wonder if anyone has tried to pass off an AI generated photo of themselves as a passport photo or some other important official license/document yet. How would that go from a legal-trouble standpoint I wonder?
A while ago a collective in germany used a software to merge the faces of two people into one photo and used it on their passport. On one hand the idea was to evade facial-recognition software which uses the passports photo. On the other to use the passport to smuggle refugees into europe by plane.
I am not sure the software was based on Machine learning but would strongly suspect it.

I think the EU is mandating fingerprints now
