Meta wants to incorporate more artificial intelligence characters designed to resemble celebrities. Instagram is currently experimenting with a new feature that allows its most popular influencers to engage with their followers through direct messages using a chatbot. The “Creator A.I.” program aims to enable influencers to have conversations with their followers, hopefully through direct messages on Instagram and possibly through the comments section. The majority of the messages would be automatically generated and, in some way, indicate that they were clearly generated by artificial intelligence. (NYT)
