Over the past few days, I’ve been to space, climbed a mountain, cuddled a lion, and flown through the air without a plane. Obviously not in real life, but thanks to new generation artificial intelligence image tools I was able to create a digital version of myself with a much more active life than me.

One of the most important recent developments in generative AI is LoRA, or Low-Rank Adaptation, a technique for fine-tuning a large model with specific data without having to modify the entire model. This means you can train a model on your own image relatively quickly.
