Creating Realistic AI Influencers Step-by-Step

Creating an AI influencer is a new and exciting way to reach a large and diverse audience online. AI influencers are digital characters that use artificial intelligence to generate content, interact with followers, and promote brands or causes. They can be realistic or stylized, human or non-human, and have their own personalities and styles.

1. Search for a reference image of a face that looks directly into the camera.
2. Choose an image of a person who does not exist and save it on your computer.
3. If you don’t have Mid-Journey, use any free AI image generator to create the source image.

Step 2: Gather Your Target Images

1. Use Bing Image Creator, a free AI image generator.
2. Search for a model with desired features (e.g., blonde hair).
3. Click “Try” to generate prompts for your AI image chat.
4. Download images of models with similar features to use as target images.
