An AI-generated "weirdo DJ" character (gray suit, mushroom haircut) built with GPT and Seedance earned 9.9M views, 1M likes and $19,433 from a single video. The workflow: generate the character with ChatGPT, use a packed DJ-booth stage, then swap the character in with a video model.
The creator has started selling a "build your own AI character" course in their bio — a telling case for virtual influencer monetization and the creator-marketing ecosystem.
