On December 12, Susu announced that her bot was active and revealed details in a post on X.
“Text, voice messaging and hot photos are all possible and all made with consent! Don’t waste time with Susu impersonators and scuffed deepfakes when you may have high quality pictures and a scam free experience!” she explained.
She continued, saying how only images of herself and voice recordings were used to produce the bot’s content while all other elements are purelycomputer generated.
“I’ve been dealing with people misusing my identity for years and all the parasocial problems caused by my impostors are due to them not saying they aren’t me. The bot is upfront that it’s not real and has regulation,” Susu added, noting that safety was one of her top priorities.

I’ve been dealing with people misusing my identity for years and all the parasocial problems caused by my impostors are due to them not saying they aren’t me. The bot is upfront that it’s not real and has regulation. This was made with my and others safety in mind.
Despite the assurance that she had this under control, that didn’t stop others from warning about the potential dangers of using this technology.
“Be careful. this fuels schizo parasocial sh*t really really bad,”commentedYouTuber Shoe0nHead.
“Ain’t this that one Black Mirror episode,” said another with ascreenshotof ‘Rachel, Jack and Ashley Too’ where a singer’s personality is placed inside of a doll.
Susu, however, remained unphased by the concerns.
People have been using my images for years to scam others and I’m stuck explaining to the victims that they were fooled. The bot is upfront that it’s not real and can have regulation. It’s safer that what I’ve been dealing with. I understand your concern of course.
