The winners of round 1 of the Humanode AI Video Contest have been selected by those community members who wielded their voting power in the Sybil-resistance voting channel ⁠sr-polls. As in Vortex, one human, one vote. As mentioned, those who joined after the contest submission closed were excluded from the votes.

After excluding the invalid votes (due to joining after the end of the submission period), the winners in each group were…:

Group A 1️⃣ and 6️⃣
Group B 9️⃣ and 2️⃣
Group C 2️⃣ and 3️⃣
Group D 3️⃣ and 8️⃣

Some results were expected, some were surprising and unexpected. Then again, the community has spoken.

With that being said, the videos mentioned above advanced to the final 72-hour voting round to decide the top 3 videos of the contest. Don’t forget to vote for your favorite video in ⁠sr-polls channel in Humanode Discord server.
