Among the latest proliferating social media fads is the use of the app called Lensa AI. The app uses artificial intelligence to enable reproductions of selfie images transformed into a plethora of theatrical incarnations, some of which can be provocative. The app offers themes for the images like “anime,” “cosmic” and “fairy princess.” Subbarao Kambhampati, an AI researcher and a professor in the School of Computing and Augmented Intelligence, a part of the Fulton Schools, says the AI-based image generator is a powerful technology, and while it can be fun to use and spark some creativity, Kamhampati and others caution that its uses could raise privacy concerns and lead to the exploitation of users and their images.
