The power of AI
Since leaving the corporate world at the end of March 2025, I have spent the past 6 months testing ads and creating assets (funnels, creatives, email campaigns, etc.) for products in the health, wealth, and AI space. More about that to come later, especially the launch of an AI training course.
One of the most fascinating parts of this journey has been experimenting with AI-generated visuals. The picture below is one such example—created entirely with AI.
Is it my imagination, or does the painted portrait of me look more realistic than the actual me?
Prompt: A hyper-realistic, cinematic 8K portrait of the same young man standing confidently beside an easel with a large canvas. On the canvas is a stunning, photorealistic painting of himself, perfectly capturing his look, wearing the same outfit as in real life. He proudly presents the artwork with a soft, confident expression. Studio lighting casts a warm glow, highlighting both his real face and the painted portrait. The composition is elegant, ultra-detailed, masterpiece quality, with perfect photorealism. Aspect ratio 9:16.
