Is there anything more tedious than having to update your LinkedIn profile? From adding relevant skills to including a photograph that says 'professional and friendly', it’s a long drawn out process that we all dread.
But now, people think they've found a solution to the problem. A revolutionary AI app has landed and it’s designed to help people find their dream job.
The phone app will create a professional headshot for you without the need for a photographer - or even an outfit change.
Whether you’re applying for a corporate role or hope to be considered for a promotion, it’s a chance to look the part without breaking the bank.
How do AI headshots work?
The app in question is designed to enable users to create professional headshots without having to leave the house.
All you need to do is upload a few photos of yourself and if you’re struggling, you can simply add your Instagram or Facebook handle and the app will do the rest.
The app uses something called Stable Diffusion AI to generate headshots in your likeness, no matter how bad you think your selfie is. Stable Diffusion is essentially a deep learning model that works by refining a noisy image into a high-res version - and the results are surprisingly realistic.
Depending on what you’re looking for, you can choose from an office background, library scene or outdoor setting. According to the website, AI headshots are generated at a ‘high resolution suitable for professional use’ - be it your LinkedIn page or resume.
Unlike a professional photoshoot which requires shooting and editing time, your photos will be ready to go in under three hours - all you need to do is upload the photo to LinkedIn and get applying for jobs.
How much does an AI headshot app cost?
According to the website, a standard headshot session will set you back between $150 to $300. A high-end professional shoot? You're looking at upwards of $600.
In comparison, AI headshot app PortraitPal’s starter pack costs $35 and includes 20 headshots which are processed in under three hours.
A basic pack comes in at $45 and includes 60 headshots which are with you in two and a half hours. Meanwhile, a premium pack costs $75 and you will receive 100 headshots in just two hours.
All in all, it's a small investment in the grand scheme of things if it means bagging your dream job. Good luck.
