Virtual Influencer
A computer-generated or AI-driven persona that operates as a creator, with no human behind the on-screen identity.
Also known as: Virtual influencer · AI influencer
A virtual influencer is a computer-generated or AI-driven character that publishes as a creator — a synthetic persona rather than a real person.
They offer brand control and consistency but lack a real human audience relationship. In creator commerce, what matters is the same as for any creator: whether the audience converts, measured by attribution.
