New famous trend at the moment! You might have seen many portraits from selfies on social media, especially on Instagram where users tend to use this innovation a lot. Let’s find out what app it is and the highlight why it became popular in this content!
In the past few days, almost all the timelines that many people post are fantasy portraits of themselves which can be called digital art. These pictures are created by AI from the Lensa AI application Lensa AI ranked first in the most-downloaded app in the app store in the U.S.A as well. Users from around the world downloaded and installed the Lensa AI application 12.6 million times during December 1 – 11, 2023 which increased by 600 percent from just 1.8 million downloads, according to Sensor Tower statistics.
The Lensa AI application was actually launched in 2018, but the Magic Avatars feature was only recently released and became a viral hit overnight. Due to its overwhelming interest, it has become popular in IOS app stores where there are the top two applications as AI-based photo editing applications: Lensa AI and AI Art. The popularity of Lensa AI has also raised some concerns about the use of images without the consent of the owner, both Internet photos and copyrighted artists, and the possibility of not receiving compensation. There is also an issue of image management security uploaded to the app. Lensa AI has been found to be a carrier of malware, as in the case of FaceApp applications. However, the Lensa AI team said that the company has deployed AWS cloud services to process user photos immediately, which means images will be deleted immediately to create confidence for users.
Currently, Lensa AI is the leading free application with a 7-day trial function. If you like it, there is an annual subscription fee ranging from $14.99 to $49.99 or around 520 – 1,700 baht. To use the Magic Avatars feature tool, you may have to pay an additional $3.99 or 139 baht per 50 images.
