"One of the biggest mistakes I see Musicians make in this area is manufacturing distance between themselves and their audience."

Can we form emotional bonds with virtual influencers like we do with humans?
This study finds parasocial relationships with AI influencers develop similarly—and even “breakups” feel just as real.

( ID: Tumblr user mollyjames: If you've ever thought to yourself "I basically know who this person is" about a stranger from reading their posts or watching their youtube videos, I guarantee you're wrong. Yes, even if you've been following them for a long time. Knock it off. Tumblr user ajaxgb: It's possible to know a fictional character purely from the little vignettes in a story because the author has intentionally structured those moments to show every relevant facet of the character. If you finish a story, and there were two scenes where the character was nice and one where they liked rollercoasters, then that's the character! They are nice and they like rollercoasters. REAL PEOPLE DO NOT WORK LIKE THIS. Real people posting on social media may appear somewhat similar to a fictional character being revealed scene by scene. DO NOT FALL FOR IT. You are not being shown a curated collection of carefully authored scenes that intentionally build up to a full character! You are seeing a random assortment of moments when the person felt like posting on social media, filtered through imprecise wording, missing context, whether the person slept well the night before, and who knows how many other factors. Real people are orders of magnitude more complicated than fictional characters because they are not designed to be easily understood by an audience! If you try to interpret social media posts as a found-footage story it will lead only to ruin! )
That also includes people you see regularly at the coffee shop or any public spaces. They are literally just an acquaintance, not your friends. You do not know them by seeing them every day.
