Don’t worry, this isn’t about those stupid AI high-school yearbook photos that are going around social media this week.
If you are unaware of these AI glamour shots—remember Glamour Shots at the mall? If you do, I’m so sorry!—just take a scroll around Instagram and you’re bound to bump into some.
In fact, here’s my wife’s, where she somehow looks like her younger self, a cartoon, and Saoirse Ronan?
(This app generates SIXTY FREAKING FAKE PHOTOS, she had the restraint to only share 9 of them on her feed. Click thru to IG see the other 8.)
I haven’t done the AI thing (yet?) because I don’t fall victim to every single stupid online trend and also because I’m scared.
