You can now have webcam sex with someone that looks just like you

Today in things nobody in their right mind would ever want to do: Finding your porn doppelganger on a webcam porn site.

Thanks to the magic of facial recognition technology, sex search engine Megacams is making it possible to fulfill your weirdest dreams. When you upload a portrait of yourself or anyone else, it processes the image and looks for webcam performers that look like the person in the photo.

The website uses a database of over 180,000 performers by combining live streaming sites like Chaturbate, Bongacams and LiveJasmin, so there’s a big chance there might be a match out there.

I tried it by uploading this picture of my face:

The 💜 of EU tech

The latest rumblings from the EU tech scene, a story from our wise ol' founder Boris, and some questionable AI art. It's free, every week, in your inbox. Sign up now!

After a few minutes I got an email that lead me to a page containing nine webcam profiles of people that sometimes didn’t look like me at all, and sometimes were pretty close:

This guy was a 41% match. Great beard, too.

And this was a 39 percent match.

It’s not far off, but it’s not exactly mind-blowing either. Let’s try it again with a picture of our CEO Boris:

This turned out to be a 38 percent match:

I’m sorry boss — I don’t know how to feel about this.

Let’s try with a random picture you get when you google ‘model’.

This turned out to be a 46 percent match:

And a 36 percent match:

Okay, so female pictures turn out to have way better matches. That makes sense, because there are less male models to pick from.

When you upload a picture, Megacams promises to immediately delete it from their servers after it’s done processing.

So go ahead and try it out for yourself and let us know what you think in the comments.
