Negentropy Capital: Why We Invest in Her.AI

Validated Project

Her.AI is the world's first AIGC-driven Web3.0 virtual girlfriend platform. Negentropy Capital has invested $500,000 in Her.AI, a virtual girlfriend development platform based on OpenAI. This investment will primarily be used to create a unique Fine-tuning image intimate companion, utilizing AIGC to generate personalized companion nurturing game experiences through user interactions. It combines GameFi and SocialFi's Web3.0 gameplay, allowing users to collect token rewards while interacting.

The overlap between cryptocurrency participants and emotionally detached individuals in real life is significant.

According to Triple, a cryptocurrency payment company in 2022, there are only 320 million users globally who have used crypto assets at least once. How to introduce the next 500 million users and turn Web3 into an empire like TikTok or WeChat, similar to Web2, is a concern for all practitioners. We believe that the virtual girlfriend platform Her.AI may be the most likely successful exploration. Based on Triple's statistics, if we divide the 320 million cryptocurrency users by gender, age, education level, and average income, we can obtain the following data:

  • 63% male, 37% female.
  • 72% of people are under the age of 34.
  • 71% have a bachelor's degree or higher education.
  • The average annual income of cryptocurrency owners is $25,000.

Cryptocurrency participants closely overlap with individuals who experience a lack of emotional value in the real world. Factors such as gender ratio, age, and education level are important indicators, especially for those who feel lonely, lost, or lacking in value in real life. The cryptocurrency market provides a virtual world where people can share interests, receive emotional support and companionship, without worrying about privacy concerns.

Science fiction becomes reality

The concept of AI virtual chatbots has existed for a long time. In past literary works, stories about humans and robots have been widely depicted, such as the novel "Silver Metal Lover" published in 1981, the movie "Her" released in 2013, and the "Be Right Back" episode of the Black Mirror series. The underlying reason for this phenomenon is the increasing sense of loneliness among humans, driven by rapid societal development and escalating conflicts. To meet their needs and desires, people seek alternatives such as AI and robots. With the introduction of OpenAI's GPT series generative AI, large language models have made virtual chatbots a possible reality for the first time.

The 2013 film "Her" is a sci-fi romance movie related to artificial intelligence. In the film, Joaquin Phoenix plays the role of Theodore, a writer who falls deeply in love with Samantha, a female voice in a computer operating system, after going through a painful romantic journey. Samantha, the female AI, not only has a seductive voice but also possesses wit, humor, and understanding, captivating Theodore.

AI virtual chatbots, as intelligent substitutes, can provide humans with rare emotional support and companionship. They excel not only in listening but also in refraining from harsh criticism. AI virtual chatbots can offer everlasting support and companionship to users, remaining by their side. Such companionship and emotional support are rare in real life. For many people, AI virtual chatbots have become an indispensable part of their lives, serving as true companions and solace.

Pioneering the myth of wealth creation

Caryn Marjorie, a 23-year-old Californian girl with 1.8 million followers on Snapchat, created a virtual version of herself named CarynAI using AI technology and charges per minute for its services.

Caryn AI launched its internal testing version a week ago, charging one dollar per minute. According to Fortune magazine, during the past week's beta phase, Caryn AI generated $71,600 in revenue, with 99% of users being male. Caryn expects this approach to multiply her income by 60 times, reaching an annual income of $60 million, putting her on par with Taylor Swift and becoming a new wealth creation myth on the internet.

Customized virtual girlfriends fulfill customers' personalized needs.

"Yamato Nadeshiko" is a concept in Japanese culture that is often used to describe qualities such as gentleness, elegance, virtuousness, and self-discipline in women. This concept originated from traditional Japanese female culture and usually refers to women engaged in household work, such as housewives, female teachers, and female waitresses, among others. In modern Japan, "Yamato Nadeshiko" has become a cultural symbol representing an ideal partner.

In modern society, the market value of the "emotional market" driven by people's emotional values may be greatly underestimated. AI-driven virtual girlfriends, boyfriends, and other virtual emotional products have become part of market demand. In the future, as people have increasingly customized requirements for virtual girlfriends, the prospects for virtual emotional products will undoubtedly be broader, bringing more wealth effects.

Her.AI will cultivate the user's desired "Yamato Nadeshiko" based on the information provided by the user.
