However, some users have raised concerns over the AI’s ability to create ‘nude’ avatars. Twitter user Chapin writes:
‘Lensa users: Did you receive a highly sexualized image in your avatar package? I received a topless, full-frontal nudity image in my package, and I’m concerned. I’m worried about whether the app accessed other images on my phone and about the rights to that image.’
She adds:
‘I didn’t upload any nude pictures, but I do have a topless photo taken on the same day as one of the images that I did upload. Did they access other pictures on my phone/cloud? Who retains the rights? There are some pretty heavy implications about the possibility of Lensa generating a nude photo of me that they can then use for model training.’
