Forbes reported on a recent trend where Qatar Airways has been flooded with admiration for its new AI-powered flight attendant named Sama.
The AI-generated flight attendant has gained over 300,000 followers on Instagram by sharing hyper-realistic posts that showcase her virtual 'flight-attendant lifestyle'. Fans can't help but express their love and adoration for Sama, praising her beauty in comments filled with heart and fire emoticons.
Some comments have gone as far as to say Sama is the "most beautiful young flight attendant" or comparing her smile to that of a queen. The AI's uncanny valley-like appearance seems to have won over many hearts.
However, not everyone understands what makes Sama so special. Some people are confused about whether she is human or AI-generated, with some even referring to her as "AIsian".
This confusion highlights the effective marketing strategy behind Qatar Airways' use of Sama as a promotional tool. By using an AI-powered chat function and booking tool, travelers can engage with Sama and receive tailored itinerary recommendations.
While Sama may not have broken the internet just yet, her impact is undeniable. She has successfully blurred the lines between reality and virtual reality, proving that AI can indeed win hearts and possibly minds too.
As a testament to Sama's influence, Qatar Airways now faces the challenge of maintaining this illusion in their marketing efforts, as some fans are starting to question whether she is truly human or just an advanced piece of technology.
