2 fake people just made $7.6 million in 6 hours. Not actors, not influencers— AI avatars selling live, nonstop, and outselling real humans. Meet China's newest sales superstar— not a person, but a real digital clone of Luo Yanghao, one of the country's biggest live streaming sellers. Instead of burning himself out on camera, Luo partnered with Baidu to build his AI digital twin. And it's not just some stiff animation. This avatar uses 8,000 different gestures—pointing, tapping, even scratching his head—to feel more human. It's been trained on over 13,000 product descriptions. It knows every detail, every price, every deal. It even answers live questions in real time. And here's the wildest part: this AI outsold Lowe himself. While human streamers max out in hours, AI doesn't blink. It sells all day, all night, and it's just getting started. This isn't science fiction anymore. Every major brand will soon have an AI face selling 24/7. In fact, I'm John's digital twin. Want to build your digital twin for social media? We've got you covered. DM me for an exploratory call.
