Miss AI is an annual international artificial intelligence beauty pageant run by the British company Fanvue.[1] It is the first beauty pageant for AI-generated personas.[2]
History
[edit]Miss AI's inaugural contest was organized by Fanvue as a part of the World AI Creator Awards (WAICAs) in 2024.[3] The winner is selected by a panel of judges which consists of both humans and AI-generated individuals.[4]
The Moroccan virtual influencer Kenza Layli was crowned with the inaugural title while Lalina Valina and Olivia C remained the first and second runners-up respectively.[5]
Competition
[edit]The creators are eligible to take part in this competition as long as the models are entirely AI-generated and have a social media presence.[6]
The judges evaluate contestants' three main categories – Beauty, Tech, & Social clout and rank them according the overall points earned from these categories.[7] The Guardian commented that "AI models take every toxic gendered beauty norm and bundle them up into completely unrealistic package".[1]
