Beauty pageant contestants have always been judged by their looks, and, in recent decades, by their do-gooderly deeds and winning personalities.
Still, one thing that’s remained consistent throughout beauty pageant history is that you had to be a human to enter.
But now that’s changing.
Models created using generative artificial intelligence (AI) are competing in the inaugural “Miss AI” pageant this month.
The contestants have no physical, real-world presence. They exist only on social media, primarily Instagram, in the form of photorealistic images of extremely beautiful, sexy young women — all of it created using a combination of off-the-shelf and proprietary AI technology.
This is something you’re already seeing plenty of on OF. There are developers out there making ~5 figures a month making these “people”. Of course the irony is if you’re that good at AI creation, you could probably make more going out on your own or working for a FAANG.
