Is it free?"},"content":{"rendered":"<div>\n<ul class=\"gnt_ar_sh\">\n<li class=\"gnt_ar_sh_li\">Social media users have been having fun with an app called Lensa and its latest &#8220;magic avatar&#8221; feature.<\/li>\n<li class=\"gnt_ar_sh_li\">The app lets people upload photos of themselves, which are then turned into magical, whimsical AI images.<\/li>\n<li class=\"gnt_ar_sh_li\">Some social media users have cautioned against the apps, claiming they rob artists and pose a safety threat to those who upload their photos to the app.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">You could look like a warrior, gearing up for battle.  Or maybe you&#8217;d like to be surrounded by flowers, donned in a bridal gown.  Better yet, how about a goddess?<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">These depictions, called magic avatars, are images made by an app called Lensa.  Owned by Prisma Labs, Lensa allows users to upload photos of themselves, pay a fee, and within minutes, download photos of themselves in all kinds of whimsical settings.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">The avatars have quickly gained popularity among social media users and celebrities, including Chance the Rapper, Michaela Ja\u00e9 Rodriguez and Taraji P. Henson.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">But while the AI-generated photos have been a hit among some, there have been claims that apps of this sort are stealing from real artists.  Others say they produce racist depictions of users who upload their photos.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Here&#8217;s what to know about these magic avatars and how the company has responded to warnings against them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\"><strong>Deepfakes:<\/strong>What is a deepfake?  This video technology is spooking some politicians<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\"><strong>No, Paris Hilton and Tom Cruise aren&#8217;t dating:<\/strong>A TikTok video with impersonator confuses fans<\/p>\n<figure class=\"gnt_em gnt_em_img\"><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"gnt_ar_b_mt\">What are &#8216;magic avatars&#8217; from the Lensa AI app?  How are they created?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">This latest fad started with Stability AI, the company that created a network model called stable diffusion.  The model uses internet data to generate images from text.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Lensa uses a copy of the stable diffusion model, allowing users to upload their own photos and wait as the app creates personalized images, the company said on its website.  The model was trained using LAION 5B, a large dataset with image-text pairs. <\/p>\n<aside aria-label=\"advertisement\" class=\"gnt_m gnt_x gnt_x__lbl gnt_x__al\"\/>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">The process takes an average of 10 minutes and involves 120 million billion mathematical operations to analyze the photos, the website reads.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">After avatars are created, user photos are deleted permanently from their servers, Lensa said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">&#8220;Each time a user purchases a new pack of avatars, the process repeats from scratch,&#8221; Lensa said on its website.  &#8220;That&#8217;s why we ask you to upload photos every time you request a new package.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"gnt_em gnt_em_img\"><img class=\"gnt_em_img_i\" style=\"height:660px\" data-g-r=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gannett-cdn.com\/presto\/2022\/12\/08\/USAT\/e8b9d997-d7a5-47dd-b3e9-5262147c3851-thumbnail_User_011_Youniverse_Disney.png?ssl=1\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"AI-generated images from Lightricks.\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Images like the ones generated by Lensa start with something called generative AI, or a group of models, said Yaron Inger, the cofounder and chief technology officer at Lightricks, a different company that produces similar AI-generated images and designed Facetune, a hit among celebrities and socialites.  The models allow users to write text prompts and keywords and create &#8220;high fidelity&#8221; images, or images that look very similar to the originals.<\/p>\n<aside aria-label=\"advertisement\" class=\"gnt_m gnt_x gnt_x__lbl gnt_x__al\"\/>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">The models are fairly new but good ones have popped up over the past few months, Inger said.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"gnt_ar_b_mt\">How was stable diffusion created?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Stable diffusion, the open source model that Lensa uses, was launched in August.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">\u201cThe guys who trained (the model) basically took hundreds of millions of photos on the web,\u201d Inger said.  &#8220;(They) crawled the web, got a lot of images and showed the model these images together with text. The model is like a big brain that can hallucinate new images based on this ton of new data.&#8221;<\/p>\n<aside class=\"gnt_em gnt_em_anc\" id=\"gnt_atomsnc\" data-g-r=\"lazy\" data-gl-method=\"loadAnc\" aria-label=\"Newsletter signup form\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"gnt_ar_b_mt\">Why are artists warning against using AI-generated images?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">There has been serious discussion around these AI images, primarily arguments that Lensa has stolen from real artists trying to make a living.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">As a reminder, the app charges users to upload their images and create magic avatars.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">One cautionary Facebook post from Dec.  4, now shared over 50,000 times as of Thursday, argues the apps use copyrighted art from creators worldwide.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">On its FAQ page, Lensa said the network the app uses is able to recognize patterns and connections between images and text descriptions, not individual art.  The AI \u200b\u200bis then able to apply the techniques to generate new content.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">&#8220;Once the training is finished, AI doesn&#8217;t refer to the original dataset,&#8221; Lensa said.  &#8220;Instead, it applies the acquired principles it has developed to the process of further creation. Hence the outputs are not replicas of any particular artist&#8217;s artwork.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"gnt_em gnt_em_img\"><img class=\"gnt_em_img_i\" style=\"height:660px\" data-g-r=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gannett-cdn.com\/presto\/2022\/12\/08\/USAT\/18bb1adb-d94a-415d-a9cf-f8cde107e3e6-Lensa_Showcase_5.JPG?ssl=1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gannett-cdn.com\/presto\/2022\/12\/08\/USAT\/18bb1adb-d94a-415d-a9cf-f8cde107e3e6-Lensa_Showcase_5.JPG?width=1320&amp;height=1320&amp;fit=crop&amp;format=pjpg&amp;auto=webp 2x\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"An AI-generated image from Lensa.\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Inger, from Lightricks, said his company has taken steps to address concerns about safety among users.  Stable diffusion initially came with a &#8220;pretty basic NSFW filter,&#8221; so Lightricks added its own filters to protect its users.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">&#8220;We monitor basically everything that happens through our systems and ensure that people create only appropriate content,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">He also doesn&#8217;t see the apps as a threat to artists and creators.  In fact, he thinks it&#8217;s the opposite.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">&#8220;I think that these models give a lot of power to the creators,&#8221; he said.  &#8220;It allows people to celebrate what other artists created and not to copy them. If you think about artists and their creations, a lot of their creations are inspired by other artists, right?&#8221; <\/p>\n<aside aria-label=\"advertisement\" class=\"gnt_m gnt_x gnt_x__lbl gnt_x__al\"\/>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\"><strong class=\"gnt_ar_b_al\">Tech:<\/strong>FTC sues to block Microsoft&#8217;s $69B deal to acquire Activision Blizzard, maker of Call of Duty<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\"><strong class=\"gnt_ar_b_al\">Alexa &#8216;thank my driver&#8217; lets customers tip their deliverers. <\/strong>But has Amazon been stealing tips?<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"gnt_ar_b_mt\">Are these &#8216;magic avatars&#8217; racist and misogynistic?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Another reason social media users are speaking out against Lensa and AI apps like it is because some of the images they generate are overly sexualized.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Activist Brandee Barker, for example, uploaded photos of her face and received at least four magic avatars depicting her partially nude or with cleavage.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"gnt_em gnt_em_tw\" data-g-r=\"lazy\" data-gl-method=\"loadTwitter\" data-v-id=\"1599177900536000512\" aria-label=\"Twitter Embed\"\/>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">In the same thread, a social media user accused the app of perpetuating &#8220;racism and sexism.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">&#8220;I ended up looking like a white woman in most of the pictures,&#8221; posted Twitter user <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/feministnoire\/status\/1599643071771447298\" target=\"_blank\" data-t-l=\":b|e|inline click|${u}\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">@feministnoire<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Lensa said the app and its model use unfiltered internet content to create the magic avatars, so naturally, the AI \u200b\u200bimages will contain biases humans include in their own art.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">&#8220;Creators acknowledge the possibility of social biases,&#8221; Lensa said.  &#8220;So do we.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">The company also stressed that Stability AI, which made the stable diffusion model, has adjusted the model to make it harder to create NSFW images.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"gnt_em gnt_em_img\"><img class=\"gnt_em_img_i\" style=\"height:660px\" data-g-r=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gannett-cdn.com\/presto\/2022\/12\/08\/USAT\/1555ceed-04a2-4e61-b14f-ac8981a81cef-Lensa_Showcase_6.JPG?ssl=1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gannett-cdn.com\/presto\/2022\/12\/08\/USAT\/1555ceed-04a2-4e61-b14f-ac8981a81cef-Lensa_Showcase_6.JPG?width=1320&amp;height=1320&amp;fit=crop&amp;format=pjpg&amp;auto=webp 2x\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"An AI-generated image from Lensa.\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Lensa also claims to have taken steps to reduce biases in avatars.  It&#8217;s taking time though, so the company stressed that minors should steer clear of the app.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Inger said companies like Lensa and Lightricks use an open source model that is made up of tons of photos.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">&#8220;We didn&#8217;t train the model,&#8221; he said.  &#8220;It&#8217;s still early &#8230; there&#8217;s still a lot of progression in terms of what kind of data we feed to these models.&#8221;<\/p>\n<aside aria-label=\"advertisement\" class=\"gnt_m gnt_x gnt_x__lbl gnt_x__al\"\/>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">The goal, he said, is not to include any gender or racial bias.  Lightricks is trying to work internally to make sure the AI \u200b\u200bimages created in its app aren&#8217;t offensive or biased.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">And yes, he&#8217;s thrilled about how things are advancing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">&#8220;The options are endless,&#8221; he said.  &#8220;We&#8217;re currently only scratching the surface of what is possible with these models &#8230; I think it&#8217;s only going to get better and better as time goes by.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\"><em>Saleen Martin is a reporter on USA TODAY&#8217;s NOW team.
