I’m glad TikTok is prohibiting kids from using beauty filters since they destroyed my childhood.

 

Among the limited filters is the well-known “Bold Glamour” filter, which thickens your lips, chisels your jawline, gives your eyebrows a high arch, and bronzes your skin tone.

This is undoubtedly wonderful news. Will the ban be sufficient, though? Or has an untamable beast been generated by AI beauty filters themselves?

Smartphone filters have been around since the early 2010s; Apple’s first device featuring a selfie camera was the iPhone 4.

You may recall the first iteration of Instagram after its 2010 debut, which included the filters “Sierra” and “Mayfair,” if you’ll allow me to revisit the dark ages of social networking.

These were comparatively innocuous photo effects that altered the overall image’s color and texture. While the filter could only be added.

After the shot was taken, they weren’t meant to enhance the appearance of the persons in the photograph.
