Argumentative
[edit]Two months after being crowned Miss International, on social networks Facebook and TikTok in Vietnam, images of Thanh Thủy and Soobin Hoàng Sơn getting married and having a baby appeared everywhere. On January 17, SpaceSpeakers Label – Soobin's management company, spoke out against the act of editing false photos. On January 18, her management company also issued a statement clarifying that the above images were the product of artificial intelligence. The reason is said to be due to the effect at Green Wawe when the two had many interactions.[14][15][16]
This was extremely serious, because at that time she was still the reigning Miss Vietnam and had just been crowned Miss International. Both competitions are prestigious, large-scale and have a long history. Notably, beauty queens cannot marry or have children during their term. After the incident, the public raised questions about the impact of artificial intelligence.[17]
