Unofficial "API" for the ThisPersonDoesNotExist website.
A page that returns a JPEG picture of a person that does not exist, because it has been generated using an AI. When opening the webpage, a image is returned directly, and refreshing the page will return a new image (although they can be repeated because the repository is limited and images are not generated on real time).
Some articles about it:
- This Person Does Not Exist - Computer generated people Refresh to get a new one | Product Hunt
- Thispersondoesnotexist.com is face-generating AI at its creepiest
Why not? Use your imagination!
- Python 3.6
- requests library
- free time

person = Person(fetch_online=True)
# Save to a file
person.save("a_beautiful_person.jpeg")
# If no filename is provided, one will be generated using the checksum of the picture
person.save()This can be useful if you want to create a scraper of fictional persons. You would be calling the methods to get random pictures, and to avoid repeating them, you can use their checksum - or just save with the auto-generated filename.
from thispersondoesnotexist import get_online_person, get_checksum_from_picture, Person
# Using object
person = Person(fetch_online=True)
checksum = person.get_checksum("md5")
# Using function
picture = get_online_person()
checksum2 = get_checksum_from_picture(picture) # Method is optional, defaults to "md5"
