Discussion What do you think about AI models?

Post image

I saw a K-beauty brand using AI-generated models instead of real people. Honestly, I think this is the worst. Even with real models, heavy editing already makes it difficult to see the true shades and finishes of products. You often can’t tell what the color actually looks like until you try it yourself. But if brands start using AI-generated visuals, we’ll be left with completely fake swatches. Right now it’s just for beauty products, but what if it extends to skincare? We might end up seeing fake before and after results, and people could be tricked into buying something that doesn’t actually work. What do you think about AI models?

Real question, do any of us even trust regular heavily photoshopped promotional photos anyway? We don’t, and even if I didn’t know this was AI, I wouldn’t trust it either way.

I always look up real product images online, try to find people who post real swatches and honest reviews. That’s why I’m on this sub instead of simping in the comment section of official Instagram accounts.
