Summary
Zoe Dvir is an Israeli virtual influencer and digital model, written up as a 22-year-old art and design student who works part-time in a bar and models, a vegetarian activist for animal adoption, sustainability and climate awareness. Coverage describes her as the region's first digital model, signed to MMG Models in the UAE, built by Israeli agency Zoe01. Her Instagram bio says 'my place for all things beauty and fashion' and names CMX Models EU and MMG Models DXB/LDN as representation. The Instagram feed read stops in July 2021.
Is Zoe Dvir AI?
Yes. Zoe Dvir is a CGI virtual model and influencer built from scratch by the Israeli tech and creative agency Zoe01, with no human performer named behind her.
The strongest source is The National's November issue, which calls Zoe Dvir the region's first digital model and the brainchild of Zoe01, an Israeli tech and creative agency whose team built her from scratch, down to a backstory (a 22-year-old art student who bartends) and a face designed from data on what appeals on social media. The same piece credits Zoe01 as the creator and says MMG Models in the UAE signed her. No human face, voice or body double is named anywhere in it.
VirtualHumans.org's 2020 interview, answered in character, has her describe herself as a virtual influencer, which fits but is not independent proof, since the answers are written for the persona. Socinova lists her among AI influencers but credits a photographer and digital artist called Zoey Dvir, with no source; that name matches the persona's and conflicts with The National, so the agency account is the one to trust.
What is not known is who at Zoe01 runs the account day to day. The Instagram feed also looks dormant: the newest post read is from July 2021. Nothing found suggests a human performer, so this is an AI persona and not a hybrid.
