Summary
Aitana López is presented as Spain's first 100% AI-generated influencer: a pink-haired, 26-year-old fitness and gaming fan from Barcelona, created by the agency The Clueless, which designer Rubén Cruz founded. Cruz has said the agency built her after projects with human influencers were repeatedly put on hold or cancelled over problems beyond its control; Entrepreneur reported her launch in summer 2023. Within months she had passed 100,000 Instagram followers, and 2023 coverage (Entrepreneur, LBC) reported earnings from brand deals of roughly 9,000 pounds to 11,000 US dollars a month. Her team plans her weekly schedule, and she also sells subscription content on Fanvue. Instagram shows about 404,000 followers on 5 October 2026, with smaller accounts on Threads, X, TikTok and YouTube.
Is Aitana López AI?
Yes. Aitana López is an AI-generated virtual influencer created by The Clueless, a Barcelona creative agency founded by designer Rubén Cruz; no human model or performer is named behind her.
The clearest evidence comes from the people who run her. The Clueless's own page describes Aitana as "Spain's first 100% AI-generated influencer", and its founder, Rubén Cruz, has explained on the record that the agency built her because campaigns with human influencers kept being disrupted. Entrepreneur, which interviewed Cruz in 2023, says she is entirely generated by AI and that the agency's design team plans her activities every week. LBC said the same, adding that the brands who work with her know she is not real. Wikipedia sums up these sources rather than adding to them.
The sources agree, and none of them names a human whose face, body or voice is used for her. That is why the verdict is AI, not hybrid. Note that most of the sources trace back to Cruz and The Clueless, and the press coverage mostly repeats his account rather than checking it independently.
Some things remain unknown. No page says which tools the team uses (Entrepreneur only reports Cruz saying she was not made from a few random DALL-E prompts), who writes her captions, or whether any videos use a filmed body or a recorded human voice. The research did not record any platform AI-content labels on her accounts.
