About the Opportunity

We are collecting photo submissions to help improve visual AI systems. As part of this opportunity, you will submit photos of yourself up front. These photos will be used for evaluation and sampling purposes only. After reviewing your submission, we may decide to license some or all of your photos.

If your pictures are selected, we will contact you and share a separate agreement outlining the specific usage terms and compensation. Your photos will not be used in any product, dataset, or external context unless and until you sign that separate license. If your submission is not selected, we will delete all copies of your photos and they will not be used beyond the initial evaluation.

Photo Requirements

We’re looking for approximately 20 photos per person (or more), with good variety across the following dimensions:

_Looks (most important)_

  • Photos should span different time periods to show how your appearance has changed over time
  • Variety in outfits, hairstyles, makeup, facial hair, glasses, and other aspects of appearance

_Angles_

  • Different distances from the camera and focal lengths
  • Different body orientations and framing (e.g., full portrait, three-quarter, close-up)

_Quality_

  • All photos must be clear, in focus, and easy to make out your face (and figure, where the angle is appropriate)
  • Photos should be recent and high quality — no blurry, low-resolution, or heavily filtered images
  • You must be the only person clearly identifiable in every photo; no other individuals should be visible in the frame
  • Photos must be authentic — no AI-generated, digitally altered, or composite images

_What counts as a photo_

  • “Photo” is used broadly: we welcome any portrait of you, whether a selfie, a photo taken by someone else, or a professional shot

Eligibility and Accommodations

This opportunity is open to residents of the United States only, excluding residents of California, Illinois, Texas, and Washington. It is not open to residents of the European Union or United Kingdom.

We consider all qualified applicants without regard to any legally protected characteristics and are committed to equal opportunity. We also provide reasonable accommodations upon request.

As noted, I’d recommend having counsel confirm whether TX and WA exclusions are strictly necessary for your use case before publishing.
