Full write-up & sources
What they did: dawood46 (@notdwd) published a free long-form guide on X to building an AI character account. You design a character with 2 to 4 features that read instantly from any angle, lock it with a reference sheet, then swap it into short videos that already went viral, using Higgsfield Genjutsu with the character image and the original clip. He later shared an agent prompt that runs the whole loop: it finds clips, scores them, shows you the top 3 before spending anything, renders with Kling 3.0 Omni or Seedance 2.5, checks every frame and hands you a ready-to-post package, and it never posts for you.
Results: The guide has 138,873 views, 1,771 bookmarks and 680 likes (X, Oct 17, 2026). It shares no earnings figures; he suggests adding a product once posts reach 50K+ views each.
Worth knowing: The clip brings the recognition and the character brings the joke. Label it as AI, tag the original creator and never imply anyone endorsed it, as his own prompt requires.
