Yearbook: current trend
Who has never dreamed, at least for the duration of an episode of a television series, of being inside one of the many American colleges? Or spending a day with your classmates, with books always in hand, waiting for the school baseball game? The references are endless. And they are the result of years and years of TV series and films that we have all devoured.

Yearbook photo (paid)
The operation is very simple. Downloading Epican application that works with artificial intelligence, it is possible to upload some of our current photographs. As indicated by the app, it is advisable to insert 12 shots in which we are not always in the same position and in which our face is clear (without sunglasses or hats).
Once our images have been uploaded we can proceed with the creation of 60 “vintage” photographs. The function is paid. It costs €4.99 to create photographs in 24 hours or €6.99 to download them in 2 hours. By paying this fee you can only download the images once and you cannot create other shots for other people. In addition to photographs, the app also creates a ready-made video collage for TikTok.
At the moment Epik has reached staggering figures and therefore the standard €4.99 version is currently sold-out.
The stars love this trend: from Simona Ventura to Mattia Stanga
These are therefore all the rage on social media Yearbook AI photographs with a strong nineties aesthetic. In all the shots taken by Artificial Intelligence, it’s as if a false memory is created. As if it fed itself a nostalgia about a fact that never really existed.
As, the photographs in the cheerleader version or in the dark version with the leather jacket tell of one of our projections. And at the same time they are not excluded from the privacy issues (and not only) that they inevitably involve all applications that work with Artificial Intelligence.
Despite this, there have been many people who have decided to rely on AI to see themselves in a hypothetical American yearbook. Among these, too many stars of our house, from Simona Ventura to Mattia Stanga.
