Kenza Layli, an artificial intelligence-generated Moroccan lifestyle influencer, has been crowned the world's first "Miss AI." The announcement came after the inaugural Miss AI contest unveiled its 10 finalists last month. With nearly 200,000 Instagram followers and an additional 45,000 on TikTok , Layli is entirely AI-generated - from her images to her captions and acceptance speech.
Layli expresses commitment to diversity in the AI field In her acceptance speech, Layli emphasized her dedication to fostering diversity and inclusivity within the AI field. She stated that AI is more than just a tool; it's a transformative force capable of disrupting industries, challenging norms, and creating new opportunities. She further pledged to ensure that everyone has a seat at the technological progress table as the field advances.
Miss AI contest attracts global AI programmers The Miss AI contest, launched in spring, drew entries from approximately 1,500 AI programmers worldwide. The competition was organized by Fanvue, a platform for both human and AI influencers. Layli was created by Myriam Bessa, founder of Phoenix AI agency.
For her creation's victory, Bessa will receive a $5,000 (₹4,15,000) cash prize along with support on Fanvue and a publicist to raise Layli's profile. AI pageant contestants created using advanced programs Unlike previous virtual influencers requiring human intervention, contestants in this competition were created solely using programs such as Open AI's DALL.
