Researchers have used artificial intelligence to create'ideal' pageant queen candidates as part of a study to explore the beauty standards of Miss United Kingdom and other global contests. The experts at Great Green Wall used online image generator Midjourney to do this, which gave a surprising variety of results for each country. While Miss United Kingdom was thought to have been influenced by Princess Diana, other nations were inspired by athletes, Bollywood and even Marilyn Monroe. Yet these images often included'highly unobtainable body proportions', researchers said, with'supermodel-like facial structures that can only be achieved through cosmetic surgery or genetics'.
