Google Allo can now turn selfie into sticker

The next time you send a sticker to a friend, make sure they show the real expression on your face with this super cool sticker.

Emoji and sticker icons have now become an integral part of today's conversations. And Google is preparing to launch a super-attractive sticker that you have never seen before, although it has been so familiar for years, the sticker is made from your own selfie .

Using machine learning and artificial neural networks, Google will identify features on your face and turn pixel images into illustrations, through artist Lamar Abrams' designs. Users can then edit more. The final product will be extremely diverse and used on Allo chat application .

The purpose of this feature by Google is to avoid the "fake valley" (uncanny valley) used to mean that human copies look very similar, but not real and make viewers feel scared.

"In Machine Learning, this is also multiplied when we compare how computers identify you and how you think about yourself. It's really weird." Jennifer Daniel, expressive creative director for Allo, said on Google's blog.

This will be the latest feature of Allo, the first product to integrate the virtual assistant Google Assistant, announced by Google to appear on Android today and will soon be available on iOS.
