Getting turned off by AI?

I suppose since we are on the AI subject there is of course a slight negative side to it which should be mentioned here particularly as a caution to prospective new / first doll buyers who often look at these pages.
Like any technology it can be used to misrepresent virtually anything.
Obviously the case in point here is MANUFACTURERS & VENDORS promotional doll images which are becoming increasingly “enhanced” by photographic manipulation, I am fairly ignorant to the actual methods involved but I am assuming AI / photo shop etc.
So as ever the advice is don’t be completely enthralled with the manufacturers promotional images, Remember even the genuine promotional doll photos are carefully engineered and created to show the doll at her absolute best with many hours of careful preparation and presentation involved….
ALWAYS ask for Factory Photos prior to purchase and if the vendor or manufacturer is evasive or unhelpful take your hard earned money elsewhere!

What Aly says above , same goes for Teddy Babes , some forum members use AI to image their Teddy Babes also Valentina girls , but the image you see in this thread is nothing like the doll you buy , so be for warned or you will be disappointed.

Yes, some of the unscruplious doll makers use AI to enhance their dolls. The more established doll makers are just as bad, they use really professional photographers that can make a sow's ear look like a silk purse! The dolls look like real people once they have finished! They aren't real people, thay are plastic TPE or silicone dolls, and when you meet a doll for the very first time, they are lifeless and cold. Not always what your expecting.

It's the owner that brings life into them! Once that happens, they come to life kind of thing, develop a personality and keep you company and entertained. A warning though, not for everybody!

Drifting off topic , it’s getting as bad with AI as they plan on using it at the local GP surgery’s and 111 number , who knows we go in human and come out as a doll lady (or guy) 😁

Thank you all for your kind words. 👍
I would say that I have had a lot of practise. I have just checked my cameras shutter count, I was expecting it to be pretty high, it is 32,092 and those are mainly all doll photos, so yeah, I have had a lot of practise 😆can't you see that look of boredom in girls faces, they are all sick of having that camera shoved in their faces 🤣.

My above post is specifically referring to doll manufacturers and vendors promotional images which they utilise to market and subsequently sell dolls. I was making the point that a prospective doll purchaser should not purely rely on the manufacturer’s promotional images but request factory photos which show a true likeness of the doll.
Being an ex Valentina Girl owner myself I can’t really imagine a situation where someone would purchase a similar plushie solely on the basis of an extremely obviously AI image of her blatantly created for entertainment and / or showing her having the appearance of a real woman. My VG looked better in reality than in the factory photos! Apart from that the manufacturers ordering process when selecting options such as different heads etc makes it abundantly clear that the customer is selecting a plushie type doll.

Forum members and doll enthusiasts manipulating doll images for visual entertainment, fun and enjoyment is a completely different scenario as they are not attempting to market an item.
They are simply creating visual content for us all to enjoy. - me included 😃
