What are virtual influencers?
Virtual influencers are fictional computer-generated “people” who have the realistic features, characteristics, and personalities of humans. Also called AI influencers, these digital personalities have a presence on social media and interact with the world from a first-person perspective.
Virtual influencers are transforming the way content is created, consumed and marketed online. These influencers have complete control over their tone and emotions, and monitor current events and online communities to appeal to the preferences of their intended and targeted audiences.
Like human influencers, these influencers also post photos, videos, and stories on social media, interact with followers, and collaborate with brands for marketing campaigns.
According to the findings of the 2022 Virtual Influencers Survey, released by the Influencer Marketing Factory, 58% of respondents follow at least one virtual influencer.
