Logan Paul has made his mark across YouTube, boxing, and even WWE, but it’s not often you see him sitting on the other side – as a judge. Surprisingly, that’s exactly what he’ll be doing. The 30-year-old star has been announced as part of the judging panel for The Dor Awards, a competition created by The Dor Brothers. So, who are they? 

Based in Berlin, Germany, The Dor Brothers run an AI-powered video production studio founded by Yonatan Dor and his siblings. Their specialty lies in crafting high-concept, viral content with cutting-edge generative AI tools – ranging from music videos and commercials to short films and experimental projects. But the question is, what’s the contest all about? 

What are the rules for the AI Film contest? 

A few days ago, the Dor Brothers announced their AI Film Contest on social media. “Welcome to The Dor Awards! The Wildest AI Film Awards in History,” they wrote on X. Their unique pitch is, as they put it, “Unlike other festivals, we don’t censor. There are no disqualifications for work that challenges, disturbs, or refuses to conform.”

They further explained, “The Dor Awards exist to protect creative free speech in an era where algorithms and social media platforms quietly decide what’s ‘acceptable.’ Here, your art doesn’t need anyone’s approval to matter.” The contest has already drawn big names to its judging panel, including Logan Paul, Beeple, Oliver Tree, Roger Avary, YDB, Jesse Wellens, Zoran Bihac, John Gaeta, and many others.

The rules are simple: films must run for between one  and three minutes, start with the Dor Awards intro video, and revolve around three themes – doors, twins, and trophies. A $35,000 prize pool is on the line, with $20,000 for first place, $15,000 for second, and $5,000 for third. Submissions close on October 3, and the contest has a $15 entry fee. Adding to the buzz, Logan Paul responded to the announcement, writing, “I’m one of the judges in this AI film contest. No rules. $35K prize pool. Go.”

Regardless, this isn’t, of course, the first time Logan Paul has spoken about AI. 

Logan Paul has an AI speech ready for the WWE Hall of Fame

Logan Paul isn’t in the WWE Hall of Fame quite yet, but the 30-year-old seems to have an induction speech ready thanks to AI. Appearing at the 2025 ceremony on April 19, Paul joked that this year’s event was centered all around him. “The fact that this is my third, fourth year wrestling, and I’m already being inducted into the Hall of Fame is one of the greatest accomplishments of my life. I’m the youngest male to ever be inducted,” he said.

While legends like Lex Luger, Triple H, Bret Hart, Steve Austin, and The Natural Disasters were the true honorees, Paul made headlines with his playful stunt. He even revealed that his future speech is AI-powered: “My speech is very good. I wrote it with ChatGPT. Whatever. Forewarning. It has a little AI in it.” For now, Paul remains a guest – but he’s clearly preparing for the spotlight.

It appears Logan Paul is well-versed in AI, making him a perfect fit for a judge in the AI Film Awards. Would you participate to stand a chance to win from the $35K prize pool?
