Unreal people, untold stories.
Every day, the blog The Unreal People presents the portrait of a fictional person—so eerily real that one might almost believe they exist.
Behind each AI-generated face lies a brief, personal story, completed with the help of artificial intelligence. These narratives give the virtual figures an unsettling yet captivating vitality—a peculiar blend of absurdity and authenticity that draws the viewer in.
None of it is real. And yet, it holds up a mirror to us. It invites reflection on identity: Who are we? What defines us? By stepping into the lives of these artificially created characters, we gain a new perspective on our own reality.
