HeyGen released Avatar V, a new model the company calls “the most realistic AI avatar model in the world,” and claims that it can eliminate identity drift — the tendency for AI-generated faces to stop resembling the user over time.

AI Tutorial

How to turn any flat image into an editable design

  • Open Canva → go to Magic Layers, click Select Media, and upload your image

  • Wait ~30–60 seconds. Canva automatically detects layout, text, objects, and background, and separates everything into editable layers

  • Click any layer to edit instantly. Update text, fix typos, change dates, or tweak taglines without rebuilding the design

  • Select object layers to move, resize, duplicate, or remove elements with full control

  • Drag in a new image (product shot, logo, etc.). It snaps into the existing layout automatically

  • Fine-tune the design by adjusting colors using the color picker to match your brand or style
