New from Lensa AI Magic Avatar Magic Avatar is a huge hit. Lensa AI remains #1 in the US App Store, with 12.6 million installs in the first 11 days after the feature update. Leansa AI is an image editing app, launched in 2018, and recently created a magic avatar feature using an open-source Stable Diffusion model.
Magic Avatar creates digital artist-like portraits when you upload 10-20 photos of yourself. You can try it with a 7-day free trial, after which it will be billed at $39.99. You can also make in-app purchases to create your own magic avatar.
On the other side of sensational popularity, there are also criticisms about the dangers. A typical phenomenon is the use of images to train models without the consent of the original author and the creation of NSFW (Not Safe for Work) images.
Currently, AI image creation tools are crossing the gray line on the copyrights of others. The Stable Diffusion model makes it easy to copy the knowledge assets that artists have spent hours developing. Making money from someone else's know-how means stealing the way to make it, not stealing the product.
Perspectives on personal information may also differ. Until now, spam has increased even if personal information was leaked, but as personal information is easier to obtain and reproduce, it will become more dangerous than it is now. To put it simply, I've reached a state where no one knows what the hell I'm going to make out of my photos and videos.
Ethical issues do not seem to have stopped technological growth. I think the answer to the question of how to provide us with better value with exciting technology is essential.
