Guess: Stop Using AI-Generated Models in Your Ads


Guess: Stop Using AI-Generated Models in Your Ads
The Issue
Guess just released a fashion ad featuring a blonde woman who doesn’t exist. She’s not a model—she’s an AI-generated image.
This isn’t innovation. It’s harm.
By using synthetic, flawless faces to sell clothes, Guess is promoting beauty standards no real person can meet. These AI models aren’t just touched-up—they’re built to look perfect. That sends a damaging message, especially to young people already struggling with body image: if you don’t look like this, you’re not enough.
Real people can’t compete with pixels. And they shouldn’t have to.
AI models are cheaper, but the real cost is paid by consumers who internalize impossible expectations—and by real models and creatives losing jobs to machines.
Guess has the power to inspire confidence and style in real people. That means showing real skin, real faces, and real humans wearing your clothes.
Tell Guess: Ditch AI-generated humans. Choose honesty over perfection.
