With just a few steps on the photo editing application, users can create "fake but real" wedding photos, highly entertaining and attracting a lot of attention.
No need for a studio or wedding dress, users just need to download a photo editing application called Xingtu (China), search for the keyword "sister-in-law" and choose a popular model of the template. This application automatically integrates the user's face into the image of a groom wearing a white vest, holding a bouquet of wedding flowers with sparkling light as if taken on a professional set. In just a few seconds, a complete wedding photo set is created without any photos taken.
Interestingly, this trend does not stop at collecting personal photos. Many users have also integrated images of friends, relatives or even idols into the photos of the groom's model to create humorous situations and spread them on TikTok, Facebook, Instagram. Users with the account name Nguyen Hanh also created wedding photos with celebrities, along with captions such as: "the day I got married"; "the groom in my dream" to create a strong spread effect.
According to Mr. Vu Thanh Thang - Senior Director of AI, SCS Cyber Security Joint Stock Company - this is a typical example showing that today's young people are not only creative but also know how to take advantage of technology to create attractive and easy-to-make content.
Using high-tech photo editing applications not only helps users experience AI technology in photo editing but also reflects the trend of personalizing entertainment content - an inevitable part of modern online culture, said Mr. Thang.
However, the Senior Director of AI at SCS also noted that photo collage trends also pose some concerns. Using another person's image for photo collage without consensus can violate privacy, even leading to controversy if used for mocking or commercial purposes. In addition, some foreign photo editing apps still have the potential to collect user data, especially when requiring access to photo libraries or faces.
The trend of white vests for grooms holding flowers is a clear demonstration of the social revolution turning personal entertainment into a community trend. But behind the attractive factors is the increasingly urgent requirement for civilized use of technology, respect for image rights and data security.
