How to use TikTok's new AI filter

New filters are constantly being added to TikTok, but the newest AI filter is currently going viral on the app.

The AI, or Artificial Intelligence, filter, allows users to morph their face into anything you can think, you just have to type a prompt into the box. However, the filter might not turn out how you think.

An AI greenscreen filter went viral on the app back in August, which would turn anyone's name into a piece of art work. Around the same time, other social media platforms like Twitter were being flooded with text-to-image AI generator prompts, mainly from the popular site DALL.E.

People have been garnering thousands of views and likes for videos showing off the results of this filter. If you want to try it yourself, here's everything you need to know:

To use the filter, you only need to open the TikTok app, click the plus button in the centre at the bottom, and tap effects. There'll be a magnifying glass to search through all the different filters, so you can search 'AI face' to find the filter with the same name.

Once you've selected the filter, angle your phone until your face fits in the template, and wait for the countdown so your picture is taken. There'll be a textbox underneath with 'transform into' written on it, so you can type any prompt you want in there and hit create to see your new you!

Users have been going viral with their bizarre prompts that turn their faces into different things.

The rise of AI online has prompted some criticism, with artists worried that people will start to rely on robots for creativity and expression, expecting art to be created for free online instead of paying real people for it.
