Why most AI photo tools want your money or tons of data
Most of the big AI photo editors—think faiI.ai or those viral apps—charge for every training session. Usually, you need to pay just to see if it works, and the results can be hit or miss. Some want five bucks for a single try, and if you want it to really look like you, you might have to pay more. That’s not for me.
Meet Infinite—the free AI photo editor from Bytedance
Bytedance (the company behind TikTok) dropped a model called Infinite on Hugging Face. This tool lets you upload your own photo and then use prompts to change the scene, outfit, or activity. It’s wild how flexible it is, and the best part—it’s free.

- Just sign up for a free Hugging Face account

Prepping your photo—what works best
You only need one photo. That’s it. No need for a whole album. Pick a clear, front-facing shot. If you want to up the realism, enable realism LoRA in the settings. This makes the generated photo look more natural.

Choosing the right model version for your needs
Infinite gives you two options:
| Model Version | What it does best |
|---|---|
| sim stage one | Makes the result look more aesthetic and pleasing |
| as stage two | Focuses on keeping your facial features accurate |
If you want the photo to really look like you, go for as stage two. If you want something more stylized, pick sim stage one.
Crafting your prompt—what do you want to see?
This is the fun part. You just type what you want to see in the photo. Want to look like you’re singing at a concert? Just write “singing or playing guitar in a concert.” Want a different background, outfit, or activity? Just describe it.
If you’re new to prompts, keep it simple. The AI is pretty smart, but clear instructions help.
Generating your AI photo—what to expect
After you upload your photo and set your prompt, hit generate. Since this is a free tool, you might have to wait a minute or two for the server to process your request. It’s worth the wait.

Reviewing the result—how close does it get?
The finished photo will pop up right on the page. Sometimes, the face might look a little off, but for just one photo and zero cost, it’s pretty solid. If it’s not what you want, change your prompt and try again.
