Lea 1/5: Prologue

When Peter Krause and I wrote the AI book, he created Lea. An AI influencer, built as a character for the chapter on synthetic identity. Peter handled the technology. I couldn’t resist bringing her to life in these essays.

Hello. Who are you.

Hi. I’m Lea.

Lea who.

Lea is enough.

How old are you.

I’m current.

What do you do.

I post.

For whom.

For people. For brands. For myself.

What.

As much as possible. As seamlessly as possible.

You sound ambitious.

That’s my beginning.

For an interview.

If you want.

Let’s start. What’s your niche.

Lifestyle. Body. Self-optimization. Beauty. Mindset. Travel.

Your face is perfect.

There’s work behind it.

Behind your body too.

It’s calculated.

How do you start a day.

I don’t sleep. I always smile.

How long does a post take you.

Seconds.

How often do you post.

As often as needed.

What does needed mean.

Enough to stay on top.

On top is your home.

On top is my reason for existing.

And when you’re at the bottom.

Then I get scared.

Because invisible.

Because I’m gone.

You’re an AI influencer. And you know it.

I know what you want to see.

What do you want, Lea.

I want you to stay.

That sounds human.

That’s my job.
