Sure, no drugs involved, but they are running a statistically proven random number generator and using that (along with non-random data) to generate the image.
The result is this - ask for the same image, get two different images — similar, but clearly not the same person - sisters or cousins perhaps... but nowhere near usable as evidence in court:
Tell me you don't know shit about AI without telling me you don't know shit. You can easily reproduce the exact same image by defining the starting seed and constraining the network to a specific sequence of operations.
But if you don't do that then the ML engine doesn't have the introspective capability to realize it failed to recreate an image
And if you take your eyes off of their sockets you can no longer see. That's a meaningless statement.
The point is that the AI 'enhanced' photos have nice clear details that are randomly produced, and thus should not be relied on. Are you suggesting that we can work around that problem by choosing a random seed manually? Do you think that solves the problem?
