OVERVIEW

THE IDEA

Chao & Nao are two AI-generated virtual characters, both fictional adults, with an Instagram account. Every post is labelled as AI-generated. The project tests whether a clearly labelled AI character account can build a real audience.

CURRENT STATE

Three labelled Instagram posts are live (night market, hotpot, balcony selfie). Cover uses a published post still. Audience and revenue numbers are not reported yet.

NEXT

Keep posting labelled content and record what actually happens to reach and engagement.
