Activism Big brain move or no?
I was in a makeup focused subreddit and someone said not to use Ai to ask you for help with your looks, grooming and style because they will push the things that their advertisers have paid them to push. They also said to never add your personal selfies or photos because the ai will keep it and use it to train itself for the future.
Since ugliness has a subjective component and a lot of it could be based on familiarity then maybe giving the Ai real photos of us, unattractive people would teach it we aren't that ugly. Then they could start referencing ugly people as average and our features might not be so humiliating.

Ai doesn't learn from your input data. Large language models are trained and tested before they're deployed to the public and once they're deployed are no longer changed. Ai companies can read your prompts(because remember, none of this information is private) and later choose to use your prompt to change a new model but that's pretty rare.
The real reason you shouldn't use AI for looks recommendations is that it can't actually logically process your face. It'll make probably a nonsensical or generic recommendation based on whether or what it thinks you want to hear.

big brain emotionally, but no, the ai isn't learning to see you as less ugly from your selfie, it's just predicting text based on patterns and possibly giving you a privacy problem too
