Viggle makes controllable AI characters for memes and visualizing ideas

You might not know Viggle AI, but you’ve likely seen the viral memes it created. The Canadian AI startup is responsible for dozens of videos remixing the rapper Lil Yachty bouncing onstage at a summer music festival. In one video, Lil Yachty is replaced by Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker. In another, Jesus seemed to be hyping the crowd up. Users made countless versions of this video, but one AI startup was fueling the memes. And Viggle’s CEO says YouTube videos fuel its AI models.
