My guess would be that they needed to get a mid-point between existing photos of the guy whose identity they stole and the guy that would show up in the video interviews.
Very unlikely, If you read and refer to the article. The identity was stolen but the pic is a stock photo.
The two images at the top of this story are a stock photo and what KnowBe4 says is the AI fake based on the stock photo.
My thought on that is that they needed a new location so their image didn't just look like a modified version of another of the victim's public images, so NK searched for a stock photo for a professional looking location. Ars has just located the stock image they started from.
Why not just take a new one at a professional looking location in NK?
The last photographer starved to death and the guy who imported cameras got executed for not singing Kim's praises loud enough every morning.
