Description
Astronaut Barbie. Beekeeper Barbie. What about South Dakota Barbie?
Two weeks before the release of 2023’s Barbie film, BuzzFeed made a post showing what AI envisioned each state’s doll to look like. The article got lots of buzz, but we thought their South Dakota Barbie failed to embrace and represent everything the state has to offer. So, we too had AI create a South Dakota Barbie but with more accurate results. We generated all sorts of fun interpretations, showcasing a variety of true South Dakota personalities and activities. Not only did it make for fun content, but it made some noise on social, too.
