Vamps portraits for references

Normally I'm not 100% in favour of AI to create ‘art’ (you know it all started stealing work from artists so it was a bit controversial), but the truth is that I'm very curious about this project trying to recreate my face. So I accepted with the only condition that instead of the digital character being me (Sofia the boring human), she has to be a digital version of my original character Vamps the Space Ranger (and create some futuristic pinups and digital space missadventures).
What do you think about it, would you like to see AI creations mixed with digital retouching of my retro scifi character? I already do a lot of collabs (and commissions) to artists of different techniques, it might be interesting to see the possibilities of Vamps in this new format... Do you think it will be so similar to me that you won't notice the difference or will it be a messy pixel golem in the uncanny valley territory?
And I have more questions... would you lend your image to create AI photorealistic images? In my case after much thought I think the worst that can happen is that some guy using my photos creates adult images with my character Vamps, and the truth is that I would love to see those images XD
Well in case anyone want to see them, here are some portraits cosplaying my OC I've taken as references!

I always used reference photos for my paintings. I would love to see some AI Vamps, though I prefer the term artificial art.

Yes, it was complicated for me to accept this project because I don't usually support AI. But at the same time I feel that they are trying to do something original in this way, using my face in a consensual way and then mixing digital retouching and 3D design work.... I don't know, I still have mixed feelings, but for the moment I'll give it a try and if I don't like what I see I'll end the collaboration.

I feel the same about AI, But also I love your OC, she is fun and really captures the old pop comics.
