Start Your AI Virtual You Today

AI you program daily to synthesize you when you're dead. (Or just when you don't feel like going to work.)

Everything you say, write, do all gets recorded and analyzed through your phone, computers, cameras in your house etc. After years of recording your reactions to various situations it uses that database to create a reasonable AI facsimile of you.

Again, to repeat, this isn't just a video / voice emulator, this actually analyzes what you would do in any given situation and duplicate that. So if you said "Hey Joe Smith AI, what do you think about this new presidential candidate? Would you vote for him? The AI Joe Smith would say "I voted for smaller government and less taxes in my day, this guy sounds like a tax and spend guy. I sure wouldn't vote for him."

Pictures and videos have obviously been around for a long time, but not one that you could have a conversation with that would be uniquely that person and react as such to any given situation or question posed to it.

       You should have posted the line as an idea.

       Man builds (or buys) a robot that can convincingly impersonate him, so the robot can go to work and the man can have some time off. Hilarity - or horror - ensues. In one version, the robot falls in love with the man’s wife, and locks the man away in the robot’s storage box. In another, the factory recalls the robot, but workers come and take the man back to the factory by mistake - to be disassembled. In yet another, the replicant truly believes he is human. And so on…   

       This plot has been passed around and reworked so many times that the edges have worn off. Saying “AI Virtual You” doesn’t freshen it any.   

       (edit: Took me a bit to recall, but “Marionettes, Inc.” by Ray Bradbury (1949) is where I got some of those plotlines)

       The trouble with AI based ideas is that they are like ideas based off where you can drive in a car, as the car remains the same. So 'Why don't we go to New York', or 'Why don't we go to Florida', while being unique ideas aren't unique as a concept. The AI remains AI, this magical macguffin.   

       So I guess the idea here is the training, only. The idea is that you can train a model using all your digital inputs, and that this is comprehensive enough to fully replicate you when you are dead.   

       Is that unique? Certainly Facebook is training based off your digital inputs. But not ALL of your inputs. So what could actually track all of your inputs? How would that platform work? That may be the unique idea. But it isn't described here.

       I remember a long time ago there was a report about some bloke who wired up every room in the house with cameras and microphones connected to mahoosive data storage, before sprogging. The idea being that there would be a continuous record of every moment of the sprog's life from birth onwards.
