Don’t share you child’s photo!
Sammy23ants
Basically, we didn’t want to share our child’s photo so we uploaded a drawing, but the AI totally misinterpreted the drawing of our character also it made us choose agenda for the character, which is genderless, then the story contained a white boy who seemed to grow older into a teenager in every picture so they’re still are a lot of inconsistencies in the AI the story was also nonsensical
Developer Response
Update: Please note that WunderKind only works with photography of a person captured from the real world. It doesn't currently work with a drawing or illustration. We're working on an update to let people create an avatar should they prefer not to provide a photo. Thanks again!—Thank you for reporting your experience with our 1.0 release and sorry you ran into such an issue. We're already working on an update. -WunderKind (contactus@thewunderkind.app)
