That's what "Grandiose Complex" looks like. Remember it.

It's become far more common nowadays than you think, due to influence of social media.

 

I agree with you, many people simply want to see their own face online. It's self-promotion, and the quality of the posts isn't that important. Sometimes they're even false claims, also known as lies.

There's also a group of narcissists who regularly annoy us. Narcissistic Personality Disorder: Colloquially, a "narcissist" is understood to be a person who displays pronounced egoism, arrogance, and selfishness and behaves inconsiderately towards others.

 

It is interesting when someone in a mass market who is not at the top of the food chain makes a claim like this. I am not saying it does not happen, just that in this person's case, most likely not.

He writes to the AI, "Please change my face and clothes so I look like a movie star."
AI replies, "Sure, no problem. Which star should it be?" Replies: "Who gets the most clicks?"
AI replies, "George Clooney was once the best-looking actor." The person asking replies, "Yeah, go ahead...!"

"The main thing is clicks and advertising revenue...!"
