AI Beards : Ronaldo’s facial hair frenzy and Zuckerberg’s Meta makeover
Was Ronaldo’s new beard AI-generated, or did he grow it himself? Has Cristiano Ronaldo really gone through a transformation in his iconic facial characteristics when he first became famous, wearing a beard for the first time?
After photos of their idol sporting a beard surfaced on the X platform, fans went to social media to ask a lot of questions.
One of the training photos features a full-bearded Mikel Arteta on Ronaldo. Like Ronaldo’s chiselled abs and unique hairdo, the beard was neat and well-kept, leading some to speculate that Cristiano had really grown a beard for his new appearance.
A user who commented on Cristiano Ronaldo’s beard growth said, “This was the last photo of Cristiano Ronaldo during training.”
Fortunately, Ronaldo’s devoted fan base was present to counteract the AI-skewed photos.
Another intriguing development was the widespread distribution of a photo of Mark Zuckerberg, president of META, who appeared in the images to have grown a beard out of nowhere.
Since the actual Mark lacked a beard in his most recent live broadcast remark “about data theft,” it became clear that the photo had been altered.
Following Facebook’s founder’s Instagram post announcing the release of Meta AI 2.0, someone altered the picture.
After someone shared the video, an individual altered Mark’s appearance by adding a beard and a bit deeper shade to his face, causing the image to circulate on social media.
“Okay, who did this?” Mark said this in response to his newly Photoshopped portrait in “The Shade Room” Instagram post, questioning whether he should truly grow a beard no more.
