We have all heard this quotation somewhere: that a dog is a man’s best friend. And it’s understandable, as they have been loyal companions for humans. However, while looking at your dog, have you ever thought about how they would look if they were human? Sounds pretty weird, right? Not for the internet users, as the trend of turning your dog into a human has become a new internet fad on social media.
Ever since ChatGPT has given free access to the AI Image Generator feature, everyone is using it in their own creative ways. If you are wondering how you can join the trend as well, don’t worry, we have got you covered!
Why Are Users Following This Trend?
In this modern day and age, fewer individuals are getting married and many are living alone. This makes it obvious that pets have become more important to humans’ lives than ever before. Many pet owners consider their dogs as their children.
With more people feeling lonely, especially after staying home during COVID-19 and spending lots of time on social media, it makes sense that many treat their dogs as their closest companions and family members.
So, the thought of turning their dogs into their human-like version can be a fun thing to do for a pet owner.
Who Started This Trend?
This trend started with Reddit, when some users uploaded humanized versions of pets into the ChatGPT subreddit. As it started gaining popularity, it shifted into TikTok and, as usual, turned into a trend. It also gained popularity on X and Instagram. After the Ghibli and Barbie doll trends, this has gained popularity in the past few days.
