The generation of chatgpt images has sparked a new wave of personalized digital creations, with LinkedIn users leading a tendency to turn into action figures.
The craze began to gain momentum after the Ghibl-Ghibl-Viral Studio style portraits come from users Share images of themselves such as boxes-with accessories and packaging on the theme of employment.
There are several variations in the last wave of self-representation generated by AI. The most common format is similar to a traditional action figure or a barbie doll, with accessories like coffee cups, books and laptops reflecting the professional life of users. The images are designed to look like displays of toy stores, with daring taguements and personalized packaging.
The movement drew initial attention to LinkedIn, where professionals used the format to present their brand identity more in a fun way. The “AI action Figure” format, in particular, resonated with marketing specialists, consultants and others who seek to present themselves as remarkable figures – literally. The popularity of the service has since taken place in other platforms, including Instagram, Tiktok and Facebook, although the commitment remains largely centered on LinkedIn.
The chatgpt image tool – part of its GPT -4O version – serves as an engine. Users download a high-resolution photo of themselves, generally full of the body, with a personalized prompt describing what the final image should look like. The details frequently include the name of the person, the accessories, the outfit styles and the details of the package. Some opt for a nostalgic atmosphere “Barbiecore” with pink tones and sparks, while others stick to a business design that reflects their day work.
The refinements are common. Many users go through several generations of images, modifying the accessories and reformating the prompts until the figure corresponds to their personality or profession sought. The result is a brilliant toy style portrait that crosses the line between humor and the personal brand.
Although the toy style trend has not seen the same viral scope as the enthusiasm for the portrait of Ghibli, it has always sparked a constant flow of content on the platforms. Hashtags like #Aibarbie and #BarbieBoxChallenge have gained ground, and certain brands – including Mac Cosmetics and NYX – quickly participated. Some public figures have also joined, notably the American representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, who shared a doll version of herself with accessories like a Bible and a hammer.
Regardless of the buzz, the levels of engagement are different. Many positions receive a limited interaction and the best known influencers have avoided the trend. Nevertheless, it highlights the growing presence of chatgpt in traditional online culture and its ability to respond to the creativity of users using relatively simple tools.
The chatgpt image generation tool has been the first time that Chatgpt has overwhelmed the platform. When Ghibli-Increase-style portraits have become viral for the first time, the request has known so considerably that OPENAI temporarily limited the generation of images for free accounts. The CEO, Sam Altman, later described the sharp increase in users as a “biblical demand”, noting a spectacular increase in daily active users and infrastructure stress.
The trend in the Barbie / Action figure, although smaller, follows this same path – using the simple chatgpt interface and its growing popularity as a creative tool. As with the other Viral Visuals of AI, the trend has also increased broader conversations on identity, aesthetics and self-presentation in digital areas. However, contrary to the enthusiasm for the portrait of Ghibli, that has not attracted many criticism – at least not yet.
The call of the format lies in its simplicity. It offers users a way to engage with art generated by AI without needing technical skills, and satisfied with a desire for self-expression. The result is something like a part of the professional head, a newly new toy and a visual joke, which makes it a surprisingly versatile format for sharing social media.
While some can see the phenomenon of the toy model like a gadget, others consider it a window on what is possible when AI tools are placed directly in the hands of users.
For the moment, whether it is a mini-me holding a coffee cup or a barbie style silhouette ready for the toy shelf, Chatgpt changes again the way people choose to represent themselves in the digital age.
