American Internet celebrity made an "AI version of herself" and earned 5 million a month!

Unexpectedly, the way to make money now is getting more and more wild...

An American internet celebrity actually made an AI version of herself to act as a chat girlfriend for her fans.

Fans can own an AI version of her by paying $1 per minute.

Fox sister is very curious, will anyone really buy it?

The result is true...and it has more than 1,000 people, generating an income of US$71,610 (approximately RMB 496,000) in one week.

The internet celebrity is Caryn Marjorie, 23 years old and has 1.8 million followers on Snapchat.

Caryn Marjorie said that she couldn’t communicate directly with every fan, so she created Caryn AI, an AI chatbot, as an extension of herself.

According to the website introduction, Caryn AI was trained by more than 2,000 hours of her own YouTube material, recording her voice and personality, and combined with Open AI's GPT-4 technology.

So talking to it is like talking to Caryn herself.

As a virtual girlfriend, Caryn AI can reply to messages 24 hours a day without being cold-hearted, losing temper, or unable to reply. It can be said to be available at any time.

In addition, Caryn AI supports end-to-end encryption to ensure that private chat content will not be leaked, and it can even conduct "side conversations"...

Fortune reporter Alexandra Sternlicht discovered after a trial that the AI ​​version of Caryn would describe erotic scenes in detail and whisper "sexy words" in her ear.

It is estimated that this is also a major reason to attract users to pay. After all, 99% of users are male.

The internet celebrity also said that many users chatted with AI for hours.

The old driver is really good at rushing.

Speaking of which, although AI girlfriends and AI boyfriends have been around for a long time, this seems to be the first time that AI has been made using real people as samples.

Providing her with technical support is an artificial intelligence company called Forever Voices.

This company has previously developed AI artificial intelligence versions of Trump, Taylor Swift, Steve Jobs, etc. For a fee, you can experience phone chatting with these AI celebrities.

However, Caryn AI is the first AI virtual lover launched by this company, and so far, the profits are very considerable.

Assuming that 20,000 of this Internet celebrity’s 1.8 million fans are willing to pay for the AI ​​version of her and become regular users, she can generate US$5 million in revenue every month.

And this Internet celebrity didn’t have to do anything. It can be said that he made money while lying down.

However, this also involves ethical issues.

Everyone has gone to the virtual world to seek comfort, which makes the real world even more socially terrifying.

AI has no emotions and no entity. No matter how it looks like a real person, it is essentially just a machine that obeys orders.

Besides, would anyone really be satisfied with just chatting with AI?

If the frequency and content of chats exceed the limits, will the chatter become even crazier and desire a real person to be his real girlfriend?

This internet celebrity probably anticipated the possible trouble.

She said she has encountered stalkers who showed up at her doorstep, and her artificial intelligence persona may put her at greater risk of being stalked.

But she believes this is just part of the "influencer game" and she has hired 24-hour security and will not share her location with fans.

Fox Girl felt that this Internet celebrity was really big-hearted, but he did make money and became the first person to eat crabs.

We can’t comment on her behavior. However, if you do anything that makes money, there will definitely be people who will imitate it.

Fox Girl wants to know, in a few decades, will it become mainstream for real people to fall in love with AI? What will the world be like at that time?
