Several contestants in this year’s semi-finals will pit their avatars against one another.
The models get 0% of the proceeds for one year and then 10% after that. After interviews and photos of the models, they get around to interviewing the CEOs of the companies doing this, and there’s an unchallenged narrative about why it’s fair and not exploitative. Shame on the BBC.

If someone in that comp has the Fortification they’d prompt the AI to show why it sucks.
