Who has done the Yearbook AI trend?

Many celebrities have gone on social media to share their Yearbook AI photos. Such celebrities include Bretman Rock, social media star Bailey Spinn, streamer Pokimane, Charli XCX (whose song “Unlock It” is trending on TikTok with the AI Yearbook trend videos), and Keke Palmer.

Bretman Rock went on to poke fun at the trend. He posted his photos with the caption, “Yalll I’m DYING 🤣😂😂😂 who are these people 😭, like girl I can’t believe I paid twice for this, Miss.AI can’t comprehend my beauty I guess lol…And why do they all look like how I imagined my sisters kids to look grown.”

Keke also went to compare the photos to her actual self. “Idk y’all.. I feel like mine ain’t me fr 🤣🤣,” she captioned her first set of pictures. She then posted the male counterparts of her AI photos, “Why the man me look more correct 😍🤣— I’m hollering omg haha yassssss”

AI has garnered criticism for the future of creatives. Amid the SAG strike, many actors and writers have spoken against the use of AI to recreate their likeliness. SAG-AFTRA Jeffrey Bennett had issued a statement on AI replication that said: “SAG-AFTRA maintains that the right to digitally replicate a performer’s voice or likeness to substantially manipulate a performance, or to create a new digital performance, is a mandatory subject of bargaining. In addition, the use of performer’s voice, likeness or performance to train an artificial intelligence system designed to generate new visual, audio, or audiovisual content is a mandatory subject of bargaining.”

Writer Franchesca Ramsey spoke out against the use because it trains the AI for future uses. “People paying to train AI w their pics is…bad. there are serious legal & ethical concerns. AI plagiarizes from artists & is actively putting ppl out of work. folks are passing around fake images to deceive ppl & the tech is getting better bc of your high school pic trend,” she wrote on X.
