AI-generated deepfake clones of Chinese livestream influencers are becoming popular on e-commerce platforms.
These clones can work 24/7 and help brands sell their products without the need for human streamers.
Chinese startups and tech companies are offering the service of creating these deepfake avatars for a cost of around $1,000.
The technology has evolved over the years, with the need for training videos decreasing from 30 minutes to just one minute.
The AI clones can mimic the movements and speech of human streamers, making them an affordable and efficient alternative for smaller brands.
