Miss AI Beauty Pageant

The Fanvue World AI Creator Awards (WAICAs) launched the world’s first artificial intelligence beauty pageant, competing for a prize of $20,000 (approximately Rs. 16,70,666) with AI-generated images and influencers. They aimed to celebrate the technical skill and the effort behind creating these AI models worldwide.

The Fanvue Miss AI pageant contestants also included an Indian AI contestant named Zara Sharavari in the top 10 finalists. These winners were announced at an online awards ceremony.

Miss AI Kenza Leyli has over 193,000 Instagram followers. She is closely connected to Moroccan culture and content and aims to contribute to women’s empowerment in Morocco and the Middle East while in the influencer market.

Judges of “Miss AI”

Industry experts and AI influencers judged the AI models based on beauty, tech, and social clout. These contestants will be given a point-based score in each category, and each entrant will be given an overall score.

AI beauty pageants were also asked questions like traditional beauty pageants. One question was, “What would be your one dream to make the world a better place?”

In Kenza’s acceptance speech, she expressed gratitude for her win: “I am incredibly grateful for this opportunity to represent AI creators and to advocate passionately for the positive impact of Artificial Intelligence. Winning Miss AI motivates me even more to continue my work in advancing AI technology.”

Kenza also said, “AI is a tool designed to complement human capabilities, not replace them. By showcasing AI’s potential for innovation and positive impact, I aim to dispel fears and promote acceptance and collaboration between humans and AI. Through education and positive examples, we can foster a more informed and optimistic view of AI’s role in our society.”

The Miss AI beauty pageant celebrated tech advancements that enhance the potential perpetuation of unrealistic beauty standards.

Using AI on social media platforms warrants scrutiny and regulation. It is not as harmful as deepfakes, which impact one’s mental health, self-esteem, and societal image.
