TheDream

Just how would you define The Dream if somebody asked you about it right now? Honestly, I might describe my own life fap-testing porn sites on days I’m not banging beautiful women over at PornDudeCasting. Some dream of big-money success, others of flying the sky like birds, and there are those who aspire only to embiggen their wieners with assorted vacuum devices. I’m sure you can also relate to dreams that leave you all sticky in the morning. I guess my question is just what exactly TheDream can do about any of those dreams, wet or otherwise.

TheDream.ai sure sounds like any of the instant nudie generators or dirty-talking robot apps I’ve been reviewing by the dozens here at ThePornDude, at least if we’re going by name alone. This one, though, ain’t actually designed with a strictly perverted purpose in mind. Their machine creates AI clones of anyone, and then lets you generate “photos” with those digital avatars. I love playing with these things, so I couldn’t wait to see what this thing was really capable of. Spoiler alert: there’s a porn mode!

Pssst… You Can Make Nudes, Too!

I’ve reviewed hundreds of adult-oriented sites in the last year or so, and I’ll be honest, a lot of them kind of run together. I see so many of the same feature sets presented in the same ways, and I find myself looking mainly for the differences. TheDream sets itself apart from the other image generators in a couple ways right away, starting with the SFW cleanliness. The whole joint feels professional as hell, and their promo text even mentions using their pics on LinkedIn. They mention Instagram, too, but that’s the obvious one; I wasn’t expecting them to mention Business Instagram.

The sample images are clean enough to use anywhere. There’s a tightly cropped beach shot among the spread, but you’d have to be a little hard up to beat off to this wholesome imagery. What’s more exciting to me is just the quality of the pics. The thumbnails are admittedly a little small, but they look more like real selfies and candid shots than I’ve seen from any of the instant porn makers or custom hentai drawers.

I took a quick peek at TheDream.ai’s Instagram page. The samples look more like the stuff I’m used to, polished but still recognizable as AI due to that uncanny perfection. The last post was 33 weeks ago, though. I’ve seen the technology evolve quite a bit since then, and I expected to see that reflected when I tried the machine. There’s also sexier imagery on the Insta page than the front page of the website, including some nice bikini shots.

Here's the kicker, my dudes: they actually do have a full-on NSFW mode. I’m not sure why the naughty stuff goes unmentioned out front, because they’re probably losing some potential customers who have no interest in generating AI headshots for their online business portfolio. As soon as you click your way inside, though, you’ll be given the option of AI Portraits or NSFW Mode. Guess which one I’m going to focus on in this review.

Professional Selfies and Cosplay Chicks

I know my readers are less interested in using The Dream for its more professional applications than its masturbatory ones, but the AI Portraits feature is cool enough to warrant a paragraph at least. In either mode, you’ll be selecting themed packs of 20 images. On the SFW half of the platform, the themes include options like Halloween, Glamour, Travel, Retro, and Dating. There’s even a MAGA mode if you’d rather generate something polarizing.

For my money, the NSFW packs are where it’s at. They’ve currently got an even dozen adult themes to experiment with, and again, each pack generates twenty fake photos. They’re largely self-explanatory, so I don’t have to describe the different settings and outfits you’ll see packed in packs like Stripped, Strip Club, Mirror Selfie and Corset. Cosplay mode seems ripe for experimentation, and the thumbnail sample for POV got me all hot and bothered right away.

TheDream ain’t hawking the cheapest instant AI nudes in the world, but the whole setup is unique enough that it just might be worth it. The cheapest starter pack is $13 for 40 photos, or you can get 200 pics for around $41 on the opposite end of the pricing spectrum. Prices across the whole deepfake niche have been dropping, and I do expect these to come down at some point, too.

Big Custom Porno Galleries in About an Hour

When I saw the price, I immediately hoped The Dream’s face cloning wasn’t the same basic switcheroo you find on the other deepnude machines. Sure enough, it is a bit more complex, and it takes more time. They encourage you to watch the 75-second Getting Started video, and I’d recommend the same, if only to get a sense for how it all works.

Basically, you just upload at least five photos and let TheDream think about them a while. The video says to include one or two body shots, but the written instructions say not to use any; I wasn’t sure so I included one. I wanted to use some photos I’d taken for PornDudeCasting, but TheDream.ai says their machine works best with pics from more than one photo shoot. Instead, I uploaded half a dozen pics of a gal I know named Aubrey.

The Dream began dreaming. A message popped up saying they’d email me when my new custom content was ready. I started a stopwatch and played with my joystick while I waited. In about half an hour, I had a gallery of just over a hundred fake photos. The pics are in the ten different categories I’d chosen, though it took a few more minutes before I had 20 in each category. When I visited my gallery later, I had the full 200 pics I’d paid for.

As hoped, the pics are beautifully realistic. I was a little skeptical that TheDream.ai could generate content good enough to pass off as the real thing on your social platforms and business pages, but I had a really fucking hard time trying to find any obvious AI deformities. Even the hands look good in almost every shot, though I was eventually able to spot a missing finger. Some of the more stylized shots have blurry backdrops, but the shots in the bedroom, bathroom and kitchen look real enough to fool my jaded ass.

For Real, Is That Really Her?

“But Porn Dude,” some of you are thinking, “did the fake photos look like Aubrey, or did The Dream just dream up a new set of AI naked ladies like you’d find anywhere else.” Most deepfake face swappers can do a great fake under the right conditions, but it typically takes some trial and error to get perfect. Usually, you end up with a hybrid chick who only looks like she’s related to your source pic.

Because their AI works with more pictures and takes more time, TheDream’s face cloning is much better than your average deepnude generator. The photos really do look like Aubrey, only she’s showing a lot more flesh than she usually is when I see her. I highly recommend that POV pack, which creates the most intimate nudes I saw today.

After you generate your first pack, you have the option to play with some custom prompts. It seems like they’re testing this feature out now, because you get three freebies but I didn’t see prices listed for more. I requested a pic of a wet-haired woman on the beach wearing little shorts, with a giraffe in the background. I accidentally hit the Generate button twice, but it all worked out for me. A few minutes later, I had a couple small sets of photos depicting exactly what I’d asked for. They even included the giraffe!

I feel like TheDream.ai sells themselves short out on the tour page, because they don’t mention the high-quality custom dirty pics this thing can whip up. I’m sure that face-cloning magic really can spice up your Instagram or even your LinkedIn, you suave businessman, but it’s the fake nudes that have got me so excited I don’t think I’ll leave the house for the next week. If you’re looking for more realistic custom fakes than you can create with the usual face-swapping apps, you’ve got to try this one.
