Gemini AI can quickly convert an ordinary selfie into a stunning K, high-definition, retro-style portrait. The process is simple: just upload a clear photo and enter a specific text prompt. Whether you’re aiming for the dramatic feel of a 1980s film or the cooler aesthetic of the 1990s, the AI delivers professional-quality results in seconds.
