It’s a common theme. You begin seeing these amazing CGI images of your friends on Facebook or Instagram.
You think, “How can I make one?” The latest of these modern vanity marvels to make the rounds is Lensa AI.
You upload about 10 photos so the app can feed that data into its AI algorithm.
Then, once it maps your facial features, it generates several fantasy profile pics.
It sounds like a little harmless digital fun, right?
That’s what many companies making apps like this like you to think. Vanity is an easy sell.
But for Lensa AI and several similar self-portrait apps, you’re paying more than you know. The cost comes from the data privacy rights you’re giving
up.
And these can go far beyond the app itself.
