A Chinese livestreamer lost 140,000 followers within hours after her beauty filter malfunctioned during a live broadcast, revealing her true appearance to male viewers who had been sending gifts and money. The incident highlights the risks associated with AI filters and digital deception on streaming platforms.

Risks Of Live AI Filters
This incident once again exposes the risks of relying on beauty filters in real-time streams. While filters can boost appearance, their failure can quickly destroy credibility and trust.
History Of Similar Incidents
This is not an isolated case. In 2019 a Chinese streamer known as ‘Your Highness Qiao Biluo’ experienced a similar filter malfunction, revealing she was 58 rather than appearing in her 20s, leading to widespread online reaction.
