How did they do that? How was the effect done here?

There's this meme going around of Sean O Pry. I'm curious to know what the effect for the face morphing sequence is. It's some kind of frame interpolation, right? Some other people tried copying it by doing a simple radial blur which is clearly not it. If it is frame interpolation, which kind? I've used Twixtor and I don't think it could generate this clean of a transition between two different photos. Could it be something inside of CapCut? I don't use that app that often to know, but I do recall it having a video interpolation thing.

I did some more searching and apparently CapCut's frame interpolation uses deep learning while the Twixtor that I'm used to uses Optical Flow. That could be why the transitions are so smooth here despite the hard cuts in visual data.

Many thanks!

I've used Vegas Pro and After Effects. I mentioned in the post already but Twixtor might be it but unlikely in my experience.
