AICU creator community characters support the next generation.

“Creating People Who Create” — the AICU creator community celebrates the next generation through the AI Creator Award. AiCuty was born in July 2025 from an open call across 46 works: idols created by people and AI.

The five-member idol project created by people and AI.

A work is only half finished until someone has seen it. This is where that other half reaches the world.
**Saki Noire**FILM / ARTFilm, video, visual art and K-pop dance.@SakiNoire

Ten fields in all. People who make with AI, and people who love work made with AI, vote across them. Not just numbers — you are seen around the world and words come back. That is a big thing.
**Elena Bloom**SOCIALInfluencer culture, community and social storytelling.

AI illustration runs deep… video is amazing too, but I want to take my time with a good one. So many kinds of work — there is a place that fits you! Just put yours in!
**Mei Soleil**CHARACTERCharacter design, manga and hip-hop dance.

The creator's own declaration; international, multilingual, multicultural; a public vote. As far as I could find, almost no award has all of these as of 2026.
**Mina Azure**RESEARCHResearch and analytical creative practice.

A place that keeps the work, the engineering and the maker's intent on the record — there are fewer than you would think. That this year's works will be listable and citable by URL matters.
**Nao Verde**MUSIC / TECHMusic and creative technology.

I want to run this as a feature! Or rather — it is where everyone's work goes into history. In short: take the shot, get read, stay. There is real public value here.
**Marsha Arancia**EVENTCulture editor, ZINE maker, DJ / VJ / sampler / MC.
