The Viral AI App That’s Triggering Baby Fever
A new AI photo app is triggering baby fever among a population better known for delaying parenthood plans. The app is Remini. It dethroned Meta Platforms’ new Twitter competitor, Threads, to become the most popular free-to-download app in Apple’s App Store.
It lets users generate images of themselves in wedding dresses or pregnant in maternity wear. Remini will even serve up family portraits showing the user with AI-generated babies. Ziyah Brown, a 35-year-old makeup artist in Cincinnati, has spent most of the past decade focusing on her small business and preparing to buy her dream home: a five-bedroom house she closed on in November.
“In my 20s, I was too busy and never really had time for kids," she said. “As I got older and became an aunt, I just accepted it probably wasn’t going to happen, and I stopped thinking about it. " On Tuesday, those feelings changed when she stumbled across Remini, she said.
The app was like a magic mirror showing a future self: a photo of her expecting, plus a string of group portraits where she has children all bearing a striking family resemblance. “Feelings of motherhood rushed over me," Brown said. “I was like, ‘Wow, now I can actually see myself being there at some point.’" How you use it The app works a lot like Lensa.
On Remini, users upload a dozen selfies, either alone or with a partner, and the app uses artificial intelligence to generate images. The iOS and Android app has a three-day free trial and costs $10 a week after that for access to all of its advanced photo-editing tools. The company said it frequently adjusts pricing and features.
