Description:
Creating a world of inclusivity, equality and respect with AI
ABOUT:
AI has stormed into the creative industry (in the eyes of some) as a digital Terminator. Journalists, with their crystal balls, claiming that ChatGPT will wipe out the entire industry of copywriters. Meanwhile, photographers and art directors worried that Midjourney will snatch their jobs away. Amongst all this gloom and doom, I wanted to shine a bit of light, proving that AI-generated image software is simply another tool enhancing our creative potential. So much so, that can help us picture things that seem pretty unlikely in the real world - kind of ironic, isn’t it? That’s how @aidealworld was born, a series of AI generated concepts imagining a world where there’s no judgment based on religion, gender, sexuality, or any aspect of a person’s identity.
SUMO HEROINES
'SUMO HEROINES'
Professional sumo excludes women from competitions and ceremonies. Women are not allowed to enter or touch the sumo wrestling ring (dohyo), a tradition stemming from Shinto and Buddhist beliefs that women are “impure” because of menstrual blood.

NATIONAL WATER GUN ASSOCIATION
'NATIONAL WATER GUN ASSOCIATION'
Everyone knows the National Rifle Association (NRA) is a big player in US politics, throwing cash at politicians to keep their pro-gun agenda alive. In my @aidealworld, the National Water Gun Association (NWGA) would be calling the shots, by setting up a program where people could swap their lethal firearms for harmless water guns. Because the real issue of gun violence isn’t rooted in gender, religion, or race, but in the laws themselves.

QUEER BLOOD
'QUEER BLOOD'
Still, many countries ban members of the LGBTIQA+ community, especially gay people and trans women from donating blood. Some other countries have a requirement of 12 to 3 months of sexual abstinence.
GUAJIRA FASHION WEEK
'GUAJIRA FASHION WEEK'
In La Guajira, fashion creative directors from different tribes in Venezuela, Brazil, Bolivia, Peru and Mexico get together to celebrate their craft and beautiful creations. Cultural appropriation in fashion has been a topic of controversy and criticism. While some designers have been inspired by indigenous apparel, it’s crucial to ensure that such inspiration is respectful and done in collaboration with the respective communities.
BLACK PUMA TEAM
'BLACK PUMA TEAM'
The Moto GP motorcycle racing sport has never had a single black rider competing at the highest level of Grand Prix motorcycle racing. A diverse sport not only adds to its beauty, but also enriches the experiences of all who are a part of it.
