There's been a lot of (understandable) hand-wringing around deepfakes,mom anal sex videos but consider this: What if you could swap your face onto your cat's body? Not so apocalyptic anymore, right?
It looks like that's the pitch for Snapchat Cameo. You can use it to superimpose a face over another face in your Snaps, creating a sort of low-rent deepfake GIF or video clip.
While the upcoming feature hasn't technically been revealed, some Snapchat users in France got to access it a bit early on Sunday. TechCrunch then confirmed with Snapchat that Cameo exists, and it's undergoing limited testing in international markets.
According to the website, the unannounced feature was first spotted by @mtasis on Twitter. Snapchat told TechCrunch that Cameos will be available "soon." Here, check out a few examples of what a finished Cameo creation could look like.

It apparently starts with you taking a selfie to teach Snapchat what you look like. Then you choose between a male and female body type for yourself. (Those are the only body types available, apparently. At least for now, during this testing period.)

Once you've got everything set up, the app does the heavy lifting of pulling the separate images together into a short clip that looks relatively convincing.
That's all we know for now. But with the secret officially out, it wouldn't be a surprise to see Snapchat sharing more soon.
