New guides show how users can generate convincing Polaroid‑style images by uploading a personal photo and a celebrity image to Gemini and pasting a detailed prompt. Recent how‑tos emphasize that the process is free to try and can yield realistic results without premium subscriptions or specialized software. Outlets now caution that photos shared with AI platforms may be retained or reused, with some reports warning they could feed training datasets and circulate online. Reported risks include identity misuse through fake profiles, potential exposure from data leaks, and deepfakes that place a person’s face in fabricated contexts. Safety advice urges reading privacy policies, avoiding sensitive images, using services that allow data deletion, or opting for offline editors such as Photoshop.
