AI Gimmick Earned This Influencer $71,610 in a Week

She is Caryn Marjorie, and she has 1.8 million followers on Snapchat.

The gimmick is her “AI girlfriend” voice bot, which lets fans chat with her via Telegram and receive personalized voice messages 💬

The voice messages are generated by AI, but they sound pretty realistic.

Olivia Moore signed up for it and posted some examples in this thread.

Users are charged $1 per minute for chatting with virtual Caryn 🤑

Fortune reports…

Though CarynAI has only been charging users for a week in beta testing, it’s already generated $71,610 in revenue from her 99% male partners, according to an income statement Marjorie’s business manager shared with Fortune. With this, Marjorie sees having an A.I. doppelgänger as a promising way to level up her career as an influencer.

Olivia Moore again…

FWIW, there was a lot of controversy about the bot being used for explicitly NSFW content, against Caryn’s intent.

From the conversations in the Telegram group now, it seems like they’ve fixed this via tuning the model – much to some users’ chagrin 😂

Philip DeFranco suspects the NSFW stuff may have been intentional…

this very much feels less like, “Oh no, the AI’s gone rogue,” and more like a smart, savvy person realizing this is a fantastic free marketing tool.

Caryn is marketing herself as “the first influencer transformed into AI,” so she’s clearly all-in on the hottest trend right now: artificial intelligence 🤖

Which isn’t something I thought a Snapchat influencer could leverage to boost their profile, but there you go.

Anyway, for better or worse, it does feel like this voice bot thing will become widespread eventually.

Last word to Olivia Moore…

Per the @ForeverVoicesAI team, they’re working on live audio calls – as well as a text bot.

IMO, I don’t see why every influencer who makes money via direct payments (on OnlyFans, etc.) wouldn’t consider this. 🤔

It’s a high margin way to build stronger fan relationships
