Yesterday, reporters experienced the "AI ID photo" function on a short video platform. The reporter randomly uploaded several photos of daily life with clear frontal faces, and after waiting for about 30 minutes, a standard-sized ID photo with exquisite facial features was released.

Many netizens also said that this function is convenient and fast, and the cost of time and money is relatively low.

However, photos must meet relevant requirements such as size, background color, and clarity. Before using the photo, the business staff will compare and verify it to ensure that the photo matches the person. The situation in the vehicle management department is similar. Some businesses that allow you to bring your own photos also have clear regulations on photos and will carefully review them during the handling process.
For ID cards, passports and other documents, the staff said that applicants must go to the scene to take photos, and the photos cannot be retouched. There are certain requirements for hairstyle, clothing, and makeup when taking photos.
