An influencer with long blond hair and blue eyes is taking the internet by storm, but the 19-year-old Finnish girl is not who she appears to be.
Milla Sofia has over 7,000 followers on her verified X account, over 31,000 on Instagram, and 90,000 on TikTok, where she posts photos of herself soaking up the sun in Greece, Bora Bora, and on multi-million dollar yachts.
However, she is purely a creation of artificial intelligence.
While Milla’s website reveals she’s a virtual influencer and fashion model, hundreds of thousands of people have been fooled into thinking she’s a living, breathing human being.

Milla isn’t the only virtual influencer making waves, as hundreds of stunning digital women share scantily clad portraits that garner tons of views and likes.
However, unlike most digitally created personas, Milla does not hide the face she has generated through AI.
Welcome to my virtual world! I am not your ordinary influencer; I’m a 19-year-old woman living in Finland, but here’s the twist: I’m an AI-generated virtual influencer,” reads Milla’s website.
On July 19, Milla posted a photo of herself in a white bikini standing on a balcony in Santorini.
“I’m ‘Greek’ figuring out how to leave this paradise,” the post reads.
‘Thanks for another great view of Santorini! You look fabulous, amazing, beautiful, beautiful, gorgeous, stunning and breathtaking in a white bikini,” commented one X user.
And while hundreds of comments marveled at her beauty, one user noticed something unusual about the image: the fingers.
AI systems have trouble recreating human-like hands, a dead digital photo giveaway.
In addition to stunning images, Milla has also created a resume where she showcases her skills.
Her current work is as a fashion model: ‘I am currently considering which brand will become a fashion ambassador and virtual influencer.’

And she studied at the “University of Life.”
“Being an AI-generated virtual influencer is not your typical educational path, but let me tell you, I am always busy, learning and evolving through fancy algorithms and data analysis,” the description reads.
“I’ve programmed this vast knowledge base into me, which keeps me abreast of the latest fashion trends, industry insights, and all technological advancements.”
AI-generated women are not only used as influencers, but they are created to force men to hand over money.
In April, lonely men on Reddit were tricked into buying nude photos of what they thought was a “gorgeous” woman, only to learn that AI had generated the black-haired girl.
A user named ‘Claudia’ posted images of scandal on the platform and offered to send nude photos to anyone who private messaged her – but for the right price.
Several users jumped at the opportunity — one offered to pay for her nude photos, and another asked the AI out, noting that they earn a six-figure salary.
The lovesick Redditor’s dreams were shattered when news spread that two computer science students had created their dream girl.
The duo created the ‘u/Cl4ud14’ account to see if digital images can fool people and told Rolling Stone that they made $100 off the AI nudes before being summoned.

Claudia was created by Stable Diffusion, an AI program that creates realistic photos using simple text prompts.
In Claudia’s case, the creators told the system to take a selfie of a woman in her home “no makeup with black hair, shoulder-length hair, simple background, straight hair, hair bangs.”
The students took their experiment to the next level with explicit posts describing Claudia’s sexual escapades, including her first time having anal sex, using butt plugs, and pleasuring men.
Her sultry posts caught the attention of other users who were eager to read about her experience and hear more.
One image of Claudia was a simple selfie captioned “Feeling pretty today.”
A day later, user MeysterA posted, “For those who don’t know, I’m going to kill your fantasy.
“This is literally an AI creation; if you’ve worked with AI image models long enough and made your own, you know 10,000%. Sorry to spoil the surprise, I guess.’
Hundreds of AI influencers are popping up on the internet
But this was after hundreds of comments adored Claudia for her good looks.
MrAllGood247 posted, “You are absolutely gorgeous!! Will be a great trophy wife one day.”
A Reddit user, “legalbeagle1966,” told the Washington Post that they felt “a little cheated” after discovering Claudia was fake.
They had commented on her picture that she looked “pretty sexy and perfect.”
However, if you dive into this person’s past comments, you’ll see comments about a lot of nudes floating around Reddit.
After MeysterA ripped off Claudia’s mask, other Redditors chimed in and demanded to see her hands.
Image-generating AI systems fail to mimic the human hand, as most images show humans with more than five digits or less.
Other AI experts noticed strange background details and blotches in bizarre places – all signs of digital images.
