About this episode
If you’re a big social media user, you’ve likely seen an influx of illustrated selfies on your feeds in the last month or so. All of a sudden, your friends started posting self-portraits showing them transformed into fairy princesses, anime characters or astronauts. These impressive images might look like works of art, as if they’ve been carefully hand-crafted by hand. But they’re actually the result of Prisma Lab’s Lensa AI app, and more specifically the newly added Magic Avatar feature. It promises to “make your selfies look better than you ever imagined” and as of December 2022 became the top free-to-download app in the US App Store. How does it work? What’s not to like then?
