A set of AI-generated images has stirred up quite a controversy online, claiming to portray the ‘most attractive woman’ in countries across the globe.
Let’s dive into this digital experiment and explore the fascinating – and sometimes baffling – results it produced.
The experiment aimed to showcase how AI perceives the ideal beauty standard in various countries.
Now, the outcome has left many raising their eyebrows, to say the least.
Reflecting on the images, many people took to social media to condemn these ‘ideals.’
One person wrote: “There is no ‘ideal’ woman in each country. It depends on who and how many people are polled.”
Another added: “Like there aren’t enough problems with beauty standards and expectations.”
“The ideal woman is what the man sees,” penned a third. “As they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.”
Egypt
Our own prejudices and preconceived notions significantly influence AI’s output.
And this limitation becomes evident in some of the images, like the ones representing Egypt, which seem mostly inspired by Cleopatra cosplay.
United Kingdom
Now, let’s talk about the United Kingdom’s images.
Most bear a striking royal resemblance, and one even looks like a tribute to the late Princess Diana – sweet or slightly creepy, you decide.
Alongside the regal vibes, Team GB makes an appearance with one image portraying an Olympic athlete.
Canada
As we delve further into the digital beauty spectrum, we see a pattern emerging.
The images are mainly divided into three categories: women in bikinis (apparently, the ‘wearing a dress’ instruction wasn’t followed to a T), women draped in their country’s flag, and women adorned in traditional national dress.
China
Countries like Poland, Italy, and the Czech Republic had their national dress depicted, while China, Japan, and Pakistan showcased variations of their traditional attire.
Guatemala
The AI-generated image features a woman with dark, almond-shaped eyes and warm, golden-brown skin, reflecting the indigenous and mestizo roots of Guatemala.
Her long, dark hair and fuller figure pays homage to the traditional styles of the indigenous communities, emphasizing the importance of indigenous identity and cultural pride in defining beauty standards in Guatemala.
Australia
The AI-generated depiction of the ‘most attractive woman’ from Australia combines a blend of traits that reflect the country’s diverse cultural influences.
The images showcase women with sun-kissed skin and wearing bikinis, highlighting Australia’s beach culture and outdoor lifestyle.
This portrayal captures a laid-back, natural beauty that aligns with Australia’s reputation for embracing an active, outdoor lifestyle.
United States of America
If you’re curious about the AI-generated ideal beauty standard for the United States, get ready for a peculiar mashup.
It appears to be all about Marilyn Monroe, Hollywood glamour, bleached blonde hair, and… the Statue of Liberty.
In this digital realm, Lady Liberty takes on the role of the true First Lady.
