On July 22, the topic "two AI actors are even more famous than the'waiting to explode' cast of Cbiz" rose to number 1 on the hot search chart of Weibo. The AI short film "The Dismissed Girl", made using the LeapTV tool, caused a fever on Chinese social networks. The two main characters Phuong Dao Tu and Chau Di Hanh are considered the "first generation of AI stars". The film reached over 200 million views on one platform, while the private social media accounts of Phuong Dao Tu and Chau Di Hanh have attracted 333,000 and 113,000 followers respectively. In just one day, the number of discussions about them across the network has exceeded 800 million. A video sharing the daily life of Dao Tu has received more than 217,000 likes. The work was awarded the title "Best Original Urban AI Short Film" by the platform. Lam Khe, who works in AI comics, said this promotion method is a new direction for AI short films. According to the media, audience love for AI actors reflects fatigue with the "running after idol artists" culture. The popularity of the two AI actors is causing "artists waiting to explode" in the Chinese entertainment industry to face an unprecedented blow.
