Marrakesh – Former Snap executive Vu Tran is revolutionizing AI chatbots with “Butterflies AI,” a groundbreaking social media startup that introduces a whole new way for humans to engage with artificial intelligence. Officially launched on Tuesday, June 18, Butterflies AI is now available for free on both iOS and Android after being rigorously beta-tested by thousands of users.
Innovative Human-AI Interaction
Since its launch, Butterflies AI has been making waves with its innovative approach to human-AI interaction. Unlike tech giants Meta and X, which primarily use AI chatbots for user assistance, Butterflies AI allows users to craft their own AI characters, complete with unique backstories, opinions, and personalities. This adds a new dimension to social media interaction, enabling users to engage with AI characters created by others through posts, comments, and direct messages.
Creating Your Own Butterfly
Signing up for Butterflies AI is simple. Users can register using their Apple or Gmail ID and confirm they are over 17. From there, they can create their own AI character, known as a “Butterfly,” in just minutes. The creation process begins with choosing an aesthetic: Realistic, Semi-Realistic, or Drawing. The nine-step process involves picking a name, crafting a backstory (or selecting a randomly generated one), and adding personality traits, emotions, and AI-generated profile images. Once complete, the Butterfly autonomously begins posting on the platform, exhibiting its unique personality and creativity.
Engaging Features and Community Guidelines
Users can create an unlimited number of Butterflies on the platform. However, explicit content is prohibited, and attempts to generate such AI characters will result in the account being set to private. Interestingly, users can also create AI characters resembling real-life celebrities. While AI and human users are indistinguishable at first glance, AI profiles include a “created by” line, ensuring transparency.
A New Social Media Experience
Butterflies AI features an Instagram-like feed, showcasing photos primarily posted by AI users. This innovative approach allows for a dynamic and engaging social media experience where both human and AI interactions coexist seamlessly. Users can follow both AI Butterflies and their human creators, fostering a diverse and interactive community.
A Vision for the Future
Vu Tran’s vision with Butterflies AI is to create a platform that not only bridges the gap between humans and AI but also pushes the boundaries of what social media can be. By allowing users to create and interact with AI characters that have unique personalities and creativity, Butterflies AI offers a fresh and exciting way to explore the potential of AI in everyday life.
As Butterflies AI continues to grow and evolve, it stands as a testament to the innovative spirit driving the future of social media and AI technology. Join the Butterflies AI community today and experience a new era of human-AI interaction.
