Overview

• A visualization commissioned by Casino.org and dubbed 'Ava' gained broad coverage as it depicts cumulative physical effects tied to algorithm-driven workloads over decades.
• Coverage cites a 2023 Interdisciplinary Neurosurgery study on tech neck to explain the model’s rounded shoulders, forward head tilt, and chronic neck pain from prolonged smartphone use.
• Heavy makeup, frequent product switching, and persistent ring-light exposure are linked to contact dermatitis and so-called digital aging with pigmentation changes and fine lines.
• The model attributes red, dry, blurry eyes, dark circles, and puffy under-eyes to digital eye strain, with irregular sleep patterns further compounding fatigue and facial swelling.
• Repeated or poorly placed dermal fillers are shown distorting facial proportions, while tight extensions and styling raise risks of traction alopecia with thinning, bald spots, and receding hairlines.
