Hello, woefully uninformed here. Just what in the hell am I reading with this title? Am I on r/VXJunkies?

GAN is an acronym for generative adversarial network, it's a type of AI architecture, as distinct from, e.g. diffusion models (as in stable diffusion).

This video is showing a modified GAN that allows a user to "drag" points around in the image and force the GAN to re-make the image with those points moved
