What are Virtual influencers?

Virtual influencers are fictional computer-generated ‘people’ who have the realistic characteristics, features, and personalities of humans. Also called AI influencers, these digital personalities have a social media presence 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 total control over their tone and emotions, and they keep up with current events and online communities to appeal to the preferences of their intended and targeted audiences.

Just 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 the respondents follow at least one virtual influencer.
