This their own AI chatbot, another version of ChatGPT.<\/p>\n<p>Then, follow these steps:<\/p>\n<p>Take pictures of different locations around your house where you want the homeless man to appear.<\/p>\n<p>Upload one of the photos to Gemini and write out a prompt that fits the location in your house. The more specific you are about the details the better. For example: Add a realistic-looking homeless man into this image. He has long brown hair and a long messy beard, and looks like he hasn\u2019t washed for months. He is wearing ripped tracksuit bottoms, boots, a checked shirt and a brown jacket. He has just walked into the bedroom and is carrying a small plastic bag with random belongings inside.<br \/>\nClick send and Gemini will generate the image. Save this to your camera roll.<br \/>\nNow upload a different one of your images and ask Gemini to add the same homeless man into that photo. For example: Add exactly the same homeless man into this image. He is sitting down at the desk in the bedroom with the bag of belongings on the floor beside him. He still has the same clothes and coat on.<br \/>\nKeep doing this over and over again until you have enough images of the homeless man around your home. Then, you\u2019re ready to start pranking! Just save all the images to your camera roll and send them to the person via text.<\/p>\n<p>For more like this,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/thetabglobal\/?locale=en_GB\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">like The Tab on Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Featured image by: @levy.gabriella\/TikTok<\/p>\n<p>                            <script async src=\"\/\/www.tiktok.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Everyone on TikTok is obsessed with AI trends right now, and the viral homeless man prank is the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":174258,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[554,733,4308,86,617,3689,56,54,55,2259],"class_list":["post-174257","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-artificial-intelligence","tag-ai","tag-artificial-intelligence","tag-artificialintelligence","tag-technology","tag-tiktok","tag-trends","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom","tag-viral"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/174257","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=174257"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/174257\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/174258"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=174257"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=174257"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=174257"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
