In a striking departure from conventional pageantry, the AI world is stepping into the limelight. The Fanvue World AI Creator Awards announced the Top 10 finalists of the inaugural “Miss AI” award in an exhilarating press release on Monday.
In its quest to find the most enchanting AI influencer, Fanvue, a subscription-based social platform, revealed the top contenders for its forthcoming WAICA ceremonies scheduled for June. The buzzworthy announcement comes following the platform’s recent reveal of its intention to crown an AI queen.
Shortlist and Prizes
From a pool of 1,500 AI-genercated submissions globally, an eclectic mix of human and AI jurors selected the top 10 ‘Miss AI’ candidates. The stakes are high with the winner and the creator set to receive $5,000 in cash, $15,000 in business perks and the prestigious title of ‘Miss AI’.
The award aims to elevate industry standards and discover untapped talent from every corner of the world, a representative stated to The Post.
Meet the Competitors
The diverse shortlist features Kenza Layli, a dynamic role model from Morocco, European model Anne Kerdi, and Aiyana Rainbow, who champions the LGBTQ+ community with her vibrant curls. Each of these contenders carries a powerful message backed by their creators.
The selection process underscores the transformative power AI creators wield in society, a company insider added, aligning with the award’s fundamental goal.
Recent Controversies
The buzz behind the novel ‘Miss AI’ pageant comes on the heels of recent controversies surrounding the Miss USA and Miss Teen USA pageants. Former titleholders Noelia Voigt and UmaSofia Srivastava relinquished their titles citing internal bullying within the organizations.
Inclusive Representation
The ‘Miss AI’ event, however, seeks to redefine the pageant scene by promoting positive inclusivity and harnessing tech to create a more diverse pageantry. This accelerating evolution within the pageantry, spearheaded by AI creators, is opening up new frontiers, according to Sally Ann Fawcett, a pageantry historian and judge.
