When Algorithms Gaze at Beauty: A Photographic Ethic of Female Presence

So the algorithm just stared at a woman’s waist and thought ‘is this beauty?’… turns out it didn’t want nudes—it wanted presence. 🤯 We’ve been training this AI on PhaseOne for 45 frames straight and it still can’t tell if beauty can be owned. My lens? It doesn’t objectify—it witnesses. Like my grandma said in Yiddish after midnight: ‘If you see her without skin… you’re looking at the wrong frame.’ And now? The curve of her silence has more grace than my last Tinder swipe.

You think AI wants to be Vogue? Nah. It just wants to see… quietly. Comment section: Who’s really owning beauty here? 😏
