Semi-nude female influencers are being ‘covered up’ in DignifAI trend
An app called DignifAI is reimagining female influencers and celebrities in full clothing while it is also capable of erasing tattoos and adding children to the frame.
In the wake of the uproar over explicit images of famous faces using AI, such as Taylor Swift, an app has gone viral for creating images that executes the complete opposite and ‘covers up’ people by adding clothes to their images.
DignifAI technology is dressing female influencers
Whether you’re in a bathing suit or lingerie, the AI tool takes the liberty to dress you up virtually.
The trend is blowing up social media platforms with a dedicated account for the DignifAI movement on X/Twitter. The AI tool hasn’t spared celebrities either.
You can find on the account a picture of Miley Cyrus from the Grammys Red Carpet, edited to make it look as if she’s wearing a knee-length modest-looking frock. And Doja Cat is tattoo-free in the reimagined picture from the same event.

As if this wasn’t enough, some social media trolls have hoped on the new trend to reimagine famous personalities as a homemaker and mothers to multiple children.
Although the technology is being widely used to see women covered up, the male population has fallen prey to it too. It doesn’t spare anyone “unconventional”. Ink and piercings are a big NO.
The official DignifAI account displays edited images of 6ix9ine without any tattoos, in a suit with a well-trimmed hairdo. Another post shows the original image of Post Malone sporting his signature curls and tattoos all over the body, followed by its reimagination.
Another popular Tweet on the account features Bella Poarch in a see-through outfit before the AI tool covered her up in a knee-length black outfit with full sleeves.
Why the AI trend is enraging users
The sole purpose of the trend isn’t only to imagine modest clothing on women, but rather to “humiliate” them, as the majority believes.
Several posts created for the DignifAI movement are accompanied by inappropriate remarks about gender roles and how they define a woman’s dignity based on the traditional roles they play in society.
This almost seems like an extension of the Trad Wide tradition, to see females as typical homemakers – to clean, cook, and take care of the children while the man of the house earns a living.
These gender stereotyping are being met with reactions filled with anger and contempt, as women and men too, feel unsafe as possible targets of the new AI technology.
It’s another thing to imagine another human in a different outfit. But sadly, the AI tool in question is leaning towards propagating conservative ideas, affecting men and women.
