AI is going to kill my side hustle

[-bZ-LongTrang1]

I do photography on the side and one of the gigs that has been steady money for me for a few years now is ending because of AI.

One of my clients wanted a cover illustration for a young Christian woman's story set in the 1940's. If I were doing this it would be a $2,000 to $3,000 gig including the model, wardrobe, makeup, and location.

For $7 he got these four images. All of which are perfect for his genre.









Aaand with that I will be stuck doing portraits and weddings.

Hard to believe this is all fake.

Why are they all blonde? Why do they all bear a striking resemblance to various celebrities? Why do they all look 14?

Brunette > blonde.

That's what the AI rendered from "young Christian woman".

Obviously a bit of bias going on there.

Redhead > brunette.

Or it's the AI creator's fetish. I am still not 100% convinced the last picture isn't Elisabeth Moss from 30 years ago.
