An OnlyFans star has revealed she sold her 'likeness' to AI to free up her time and keep up with fans' 'countless demands'.
Chloe Amour, from Las Vegas, has performed for years in the adult entertainment industry on the popular platform, OnlyFans.
However, keeping up with fans demands for constant engagement, while juggling her successful career in the sector, quickly became a challenge.
She told the Daily Mail that she can't always honor fan's requests - and so the 33-year-old thought outside of the box and has come up with an innovative solution.

The performer has created a virtual alter ego, with the help of artificial intelligence, which interacts with her audience when her schedule gets too much.
The technology means she isn't missing out on earning some cash by letting subscribers down when she's all booked up.
Chloe explained: "When I chat with my fans directly, sometimes there’s things that they want to talk about with me, or there’s things that they want from me that I might not be able to give them.
“But through AI, they have the same likeness of me, and it’s like I can be everything that they want me to be in a sense."
The star agreed to making an AI version of herself after being approached by a company with the idea.
She agreed to making a realistic virtual representation of herself - and the company paid her for her photographs, videos and personal information.
However, Chloe said AI does feel 'scary and weird' sometimes but the benefits far outweigh any cons as she's able to free up her time and release some of the pressure on her workload.
She said her AI twin will soon come in handy when she's spending up to 12 hours on film shoots.
The entertainer also said transparency is key as she stressed to her fans that although the bot looks and sounds like her, she is not actually 'behind the device communicating'.
Chloe wants her fans to know she's using AI, so they know what they're paying for.
While some fans like interacting with digital adult performers or even creating their own AI girlfriends, others reject the idea as the way forward and could even have a detrimental impact on consumers' mental health.
Dr. Gregory Jantz told The Sun: "AI is not going to bring you a meal. We're setting ourselves up for a lot of future despondency.
"Watch how unfulfilled it will end up being."
The doc said he has had several patients come to him with 'digital addictions', which he considers as serious as alcohol or drug dependencies.
"We do know that you can create an emotional bond to that technology, to that social media, and to that AI girlfriend," he continued.
"An emotional connection is made so you will go through withdrawal when that is extracted."
But as for Chloe, the only regret she has is that she wishes she signed up to the AI plan sooner, 'because I would've gotten a bigger bonus', she added.
