The Mikey Weil Action Figure - Coming to a Store Near You
Stuff and Things for Jobseekers and Talent Acquisition Professionals
I Joined the Trend
There is a trend going around right now where people are making packaged custom action figures of themselves. I love AI and thought I would give it a shot.
My prompt was pretty basic. Something along the lines of: “Make me an action figure in its package and give me _____, _____, and _____ as accessories.” I also uploaded a picture of myself. I had ChatGPT rework it a little. I had it give me the same color sweatshirt and sweatpants, as I often accidentally wear the same colors and look like a Real Housewife in a jumpsuit. One of the water bottles that it gave me was too much of an athletic water bottle, which was very unlike me, so I had them make it a regular water bottle.
A previous colleague and friend pointed out that I didn’t have hand sanitizer, so I made another version: Career Fair Associate action figure Mikey Weil. The career fairs that I attended at my last job came with fantastic catering, especially their cookies. And it also came with the need to drench my hands in hand sanitizer. We really need to make the fist bump formal and the new way to introduce ourselves.
