This is what the 'perfect' man and woman look like, according to AI
Gentlemen do truly prefer blondes, and'tall, dark, and handsome' are the features of an ideal man. This is according to artificial intelligence tools that learn from the billions of images on social media sites depicting beautiful people. The Bulimia Project, an eating disorder awareness group, asked image AI websites to produce the'perfect' male and female bodies, according to what gets most engagement on social media. Researchers from the organization found that the most desirable women had blonde hair, olive skin, brown eyes, and slim figures, while the'perfect' male had dark, smoldering eyes, chiseled cheekbones and defined muscles. Most images of the'perfect' male showed men with dark hair and eyes and olive-toned skin as well as toned muscles and chiseled jawlines The Bulimia Project tested Artificial Intelligence image generators, including Dall-E 2, Stable Diffusion, and Midjourney, to reveal what the programs' idea of the'perfect' physique looks like in women and men.
AI defines 'ideal body type' per social media – here's what it looks like
Fox News correspondent Grady Trimble has the latest on fears the technology will spiral out of control on'Special Report.' Artificial intelligence has its own idea of what the perfect human body should look like. A new study by The Bulimia Project, a Brooklyn, New York-based website that publishes content and research related to eating disorders, investigated how AI perceived the "ideal" body based on social media data. The results, produced by AI-generated imaging tools such as Dall-E 2, Stable Diffusion and Midjourney, showed widely "unrealistic" body structures, as reported in a discussion of the findings on The Bulimia Project's website. Forty percent of the overall images depicted "unrealistic" body types of muscular men and women -- 37% for women and 43% for men -- according to the study.
