Give Me a Face Like the AI Filters!
A plastic surgeon I know here in New York told me more and more patients walk in with a photo in hand and ask him to rebuild their face exactly like that. And it’s not a photo of them when they were younger. It’s a face generated by Artificial Intelligence!
Going to a surgeon to look younger, we’ve always done that, nothing new. But now they want features no human being has ever had: perfect symmetry, skin without a single pore, cheekbones drawn to the millimeter. A machine face.
Because a filter has no bones, no skin that ages, no age at all. You have your cheekbone, it draws whatever cheekbone it likes. It spits out a smooth face, identical left and right, perfect the way only a machine can be. And the brain takes it for a goal within reach.
We already saw this with Instagram and Snapchat filters. Ten-year-old girls, made up and dressed like adults, in front of the mirror hunting for a flaw that wasn’t there before. Now it gets worse: the AI hands you back another species, a you that was never human.
Now the app filters, toys really, get used as a mirror. A mirror that convinces us the wrong face is the real one.
So, maybe AI will find the cure for all our fears. But meanwhile, in 2026, people walk into a surgeon’s office holding the photo of a person who doesn’t exist, and ask to become that thing!
