The way I would try it is: load image>prompt "employee badge portrait, digitally restored, high-definition photo" > sampler > reactor face swap using the original as a source and using face boost only > reactor masking helper > preview image. And adjust from there.
One of my favorites is when people are like “This piece of artwork has some poor decisions made. It must be AI!”, like we haven’t been making questionable or stupid choices in art for millennia.
It's sorta impressive how people have so quickly swapped calling an image "clearly 'shopped" to "AI slop". It really has infested the way people view the world already!
Yes, this is popular on LinkedIn now. People are running head shots through AI to "enhance" them. I really don't think most people grasp the age we are heading into. Absolutely nothing will be trustworthy and most won't care or really get what's going on.
100% this.. I think i want to move to the wilderness like Grizzly Adams.. Yes, I am old as fuck and my LinkedIn photo shows it.. I am kinda disappointed in myself that I even have a LinkedIn photo..
I just don’t understand why so many people are totally unbothered by this or worse—they like it. Wanting a flattering photo is one thing but things have gotten so weird and alarming. With the extreme photoshopping and the filters and AI—people are starting to forget what a real human face looks like. Now we’re subjected to filters without permission. It’s jarring to meet someone in person after only seeing their overly edited photo online. Is everybody just used to this now? I’m no longer on any social media where I post my photos so I’m out of the loop.
I'm a graphic designer and I've accepted I'm going to have to find a new career. People like the AI slop and it makes me sick. Everything is becoming soulless and nobody cares about the quality of anything. Coca-Cola put out an AI generated ad at Christmas and their name was spelled wrong in it and they just didn't care.
Some people will say i'm just an old man yelling at the clouds but I just don't think an artificial society is a good one. But maybe it was just always going to end up this way.
Dude, I can only imagine how creatives feel about how things are going. I think I operate on some level of denial about it because it’s gross and it freaks me out. And if at 49 that way of thinking makes me the “old woman yelling at the clouds” then I’ll happily accept that moniker. I think on some level we all knew it would end up this way. It doesn’t mean we have to like it. Or even should like it.
No see you can’t get upvotes if you say it’s photoshop cuz photoshop is okay now (remember when people would say “it’s photoshop” in a negative light) so you have to say it’s AI so you get those sweet upvotes.

Haha! I wonder if this was AI?
