I Created a Mobile App That Turns People Into Giga Chads and Memes With AI

Hey Hackers! I am Nik Golos, an indie startup founder, and product manager. I want to share a project I've been working on over the past few months.

What is MeMemes?

MeMemes is a mobile app that uses AI to transform people into over 30 famous meme images. To create personalised memes, you simply need to send 10 selfies to the app, and within 1 hour, you will receive meme images featuring yourself.

Here are some examples of the resulting images:

How I came to the idea?

I was inspired by the Remix option in Midjourney. Towards the end of 2022, I came across an article showcasing how people used this feature to combine two pictures, resulting in some crazy outcomes by mixing humans with animals and generating new memes.

Later, just for some fun, I decided to prank my friend using the Midjourney Remix feature with his images. However, I wasn't satisfied with the results.

So, I built my own pipeline using Stable Diffusion + DreamBooth and created a few memes by blending his face with GigaChad's. My friend had a good laugh when he saw these meme images. This experience sparked the idea to develop an app that would make the process easier to repeat.

Next steps

Currently, I'm seeking beta users to test the technology on different people. I'd love to hear your ideas and feedback on how to improve the app. I hope you all enjoy it and have some fun!
