A 33-year-old man, Kaiga Yokota, was arrested for fraud after creating a realistic AI-generated female persona named Miru Nanase. He used this persona to attract followers on social media, offering dating advice and personal transformation services. Despite gaining around 90,000 followers, suspicions arose regarding the legitimacy of his services due to a lack of testimonials and responses to inquiries.
Yokota allegedly swindled 1.25 million yen from a man seeking dating advice and forex trading investment. His defense claims there was no deception, raising questions about the legality of using AI-generated images for business. This case highlights the need for skepticism in online interactions, especially when AI technology is involved.
