Questions about AI photo prompts
How do I use an AI photo prompt?
Pick a look, copy its prompt, then open ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok or Copilot, attach your photo and paste the prompt. Replace any words in square brackets with your own details before you send it.
Which AI apps work with these prompts?
Any image generator that accepts a photo and a text prompt. The Open in ChatGPT, Grok and Copilot buttons fill the prompt in for you; Gemini has no such link, so the prompt is copied and you paste it there.
What do the words in square brackets mean?
They are placeholders for your own choices, such as a setting, a name or a colour. Swap them for what you want, or delete them to let the AI decide.
Are the prompts free?
Yes. Copy as many as you like, with no account and no sign-up.
Will my face stay the same?
Every prompt asks the AI to keep your face, skin tone and features unchanged, but general chat apps can still drift. The Trendy AI Lab app makes the same looks in one tap from your selfie.
