IAIA DOESN'T EXIST: HOW I CREATED AN AI INFLUENCER (AND WHY WE SHOULD CARE)
Let me introduce you to Iaia. Or rather, the ghost I created.
At the Sagra del Folpo, I posted a video of a smiling girl at our Ranch grills. Cowboy hat, overalls, "I'll see you tonight, even if it rains.".
Viral. Hundreds of views. “Who is she? She's beautiful! Where can I find her?”
The truth? Iaia doesn't exist. I created her with artificial intelligence in two hours of work. And no, not with ChatGPT.
On the blog I tell you everything: the technical workflow (8 different tools), the collective shock when I revealed the truth, and above all the warning I wanted to give about what it means to live in an era where reality can be constructed pixel by pixel.
