If you’re one of Meta’s 79,000 employees and can’t get hold of the boss, don’t worry. The owner of Facebook and Instagram is reportedly working on an AI version of Mark Zuckerberg who can answer all your queries.
The AI clone of Zuckerberg, the company’s founder and chief executive, is being trained on his mannerisms and tone as well as his public statements and thoughts on company strategy.
The rationale behind the project, according to the Financial Times, is that employees might feel more connected to one of the most powerful people in Silicon Valley.
The Meta chief has a history of creating and experimenting with digitalised versions of himself.
