Facetune is now broadening its features with the YOUniverse option that allows users to [edit their selfies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reshot-ai) in [text-to-image technology](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retouchai). It uses artificial intelligence technology of the open-source Stable Diffusion model to help create a fantastical iteration of itself.

Users can imagine themselves in different scenes and styles without the need to wear costumes or have colorful backgrounds. As shown in a [Youtube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aicut-20) demonstration, users will update a variety of reference photos so that the app can properly understand their specific features. From this, users will then enter text prints including "me as The Mad Hatter in Alice in Wonderland,” and the technology will then formulate the visual using the AI technology programmed into the app.
