Hmm, the ones I tried changed my face so much that I couldn’t even recognize myself. But if your product will work better, I’d be happy to try it

I feel like AI-generated headshots are a time-saver, but they need to be top quality. For me, I'd say the focus should be on ensuring the image is polished but still authentic.

AI-generated headshots, In my opinion, are incredibly practical for professional profiles or fact updates, For me, the most crucial element is realism, the sense that it's really me.

While I think AI-generated headshots are a cool concept, I'd want them to reflect my personality. Realism is important, but so is conveying my character.

That sounds like an interesting idea! But I’m curious—what specific industries or use cases do you see this being most useful for? Personally, I think it would be great if the headshots leaned more toward clear and natural features.

Answer

I think AI-generated headshots are a great idea, especially for quick and affordable options. For me, the most important factor is maintaining natural facial features while still achieving high quality and realism. It’s crucial that the final image looks like a polished version of the real person, not overly edited or fake.😉

I think AI-generated headshots can be a double-edged sword. On one hand, they're convenient and cost-effective. On the other hand, they might lack the authenticity and uniqueness of real photos. It really depends on the context and how they're used. For professional profiles, I'd lean towards using real photos to build trust and a genuine connection with viewers. What do you think?
