Overview
- The launch includes Episode 1 on YouTube with the first two episodes available on AiMation’s freemium iOS streamer, with the remaining episodes scheduled for December 15 and 22.
- Six photoreal virtual contestants compete on a simulated island, with decisions generated independently by AI agents rather than written scripts.
- Episodes are compiled from simulation logs in a process the creators liken to documentary editing, and the team says it did not select a winner or predetermine eliminations.
- A five-person team built the show using AiMation’s Omnigen workflow and an in-house reasoning engine, with ElevenLabs for voices and Seedance/other ByteDance models for generation.
- Four episodes were produced in under two months for about $28,000, a fraction of traditional reality budgets such as The Traitors at roughly £1 million per episode.
