Humanizing Pets with AI: A Step-by-Step Guide
The use of artificial intelligence for creative expression has become increasingly popular, and the latest trend involves turning pets into human-like images using OpenAI’s ChatGPT. This generative AI chatbot can transform any photograph into something entirely different.
The trend began on Reddit before spreading to TikTok and other social media platforms. Users share the original photo alongside the AI-generated result, showcasing their pets as adults. To participate, follow these simple steps:
- Create or log in to your OpenAI ChatGPT account.
- Upload a photo of your pet.
- Enter the prompt: “make this [dog/cat] [male/female] as a real person, pose (optional) keep everything else in the image the same.”
- Specify details like the pet’s gender.
Users have shared impressive results on social media, mostly featuring dogs and cats transformed into adult humans. Some have even turned humans into pets. The trend gained momentum after OpenAI unveiled GPT-4o, an advanced image generator that accepts various input types.
While AI-generated image trends have sparked creativity, they have also raised concerns about plagiarism and misinformation. As with any advanced technology, understanding its capabilities and limitations is crucial.
By following these steps and being aware of the potential implications, you can join in on this creative trend and see your pet in a whole new light.
