If there's one thing the internet adores, it's an AI trend. From pet portraits to mini me action figurines, it seems social media loves feeding the beast to watch it spit out a few funny pictures, but the latest trend might be a step too far. Concocting realistic selfies of fictional (and sometimes real) couples' hypothetical babies, this new AI trend toes the line between harmless fun and a dystopian creepshow.
For every productive way to use AI properly, there exists an endless void of AI trends that make me question whether the internet can be trusted with the technology. What started as a playful trend has snowballed into all-out eeriness, and I'm not sure how to feel. Take this as a prime example of the phrase 'just because you can, doesn't mean you should.'
