Artificial intelligence is revolutionizing the world of influencers, giving rise to a new wave of digital personalities that are entirely virtual. These AI-generated influencers, such as Aika Kittie, are gaining traction on various social media platforms, including Instagram and Twitter. Aika’s Instagram profile, with its 67,000 followers, showcases her in bikinis and lingerie, but there’s a catch – she’s not real. Aika is an online avatar created using artificial intelligence technology.
She is not the only one; numerous AI-generated influencers like Aika have emerged, amassing substantial followings. This growing community of AI content creators is actively collaborating on platforms like Discord, where they exchange marketing strategies and resources to enhance their digital presence and monetization.
The AI influencer community is not solely driven by commercial objectives; some creators are driven by artistic pursuits. The Discord community ‘Generative Dreamers,’ spearheaded by Aika’s creator, has attracted over 100 prominent AI content creators. Within this community, members share insights, refine their art, and discuss various topics, including manga, anime, and gaming.
One of the most active channels within the Discord server is dedicated to collaborations. Here, creators can share pre-made group pictures of AI-generated characters, allowing others to ‘claim’ participation and customize the characters’ physical features with their own, fostering a collaborative and creative environment.
