Imagine a world where a digital replica of yourself efficiently and tirelessly handles all your work, freeing up your hands for more important tasks. It isn't a sci-fi plot; it's a potential reality that could soon be part of our daily lives.

The benefits quickly became apparent when ChatGPT, a text-based AI model, was introduced two and a half years ago. It allowed us to work faster and get more done in less time. However, despite its usefulness, ChatGPT remains an impersonal tool. Detailed instructions often make estimating what you mean easier for the chatbot. Still, sometimes, this only partially leads to good results.

What if these chatbots evolved beyond being mere tools and became personalized assistants? What if their algorithms were trained with your personal data? This could result in a virtual assistant that comprehends your values ​​and norms, making decisions as you would. Such a tailored AI clone could significantly lighten your workload, making you feel more understood and catered to.

Consider tasks such as answering the phone and scheduling appointments in your calendar. Commercially, you can use it to answer helpdesk questions or perform customer service tasks, allowing you to focus on more critical business tasks.

Also, consider the creative sector. As a writer, I can train my virtual clone with my previous work and writing style. This AI clone can conduct research, write drafts, take on editorial duties, and even be a co-author. Imagine you are reading a magazine, and my AI clones have already written out interesting new concepts and ideas for you.

By feeding the chatbot extensive data about yourself, such as your work documents, emails, and even your social media interactions, this AI clone can get a detailed picture of how you work and your preferences. Imagine completing a questionnaire that deeply assesses your working method, personal preferences, and communication style. This data is the basis on which your AI clone acts.

AI clones can reduce our workload and improve the quality of our work and life. Imagine the possibility of having more time for the things you're genuinely passionate about while your virtual clone takes care of the rest.

It's understandable that many are apprehensive about the use of AI cloning and the potential implications for their privacy. Privacy is a crucial aspect of this technology. All too often, commercial interests overshadow privacy concerns, and there's room for improvement. I believe we need to establish stronger regulations and agreements to ensure the responsible use and protection of personal data in AI cloning.

So the question is not if we can have AI clones, but when. And more importantly, how willing are we to welcome this technology and push the boundaries of our current work and life frameworks?

AI as a personal coach and teacher

With AI, I discovered a compelling and fantastic video that chronicles the journey of a developer and his business partner Ryan. They made the difficult decision to close their company, which initially aimed to revolutionize annotation generation for podcast shows. Despite developing a functional and money-generating application, they did not achieve the desired results. This led to disappointment, but it also stimulated the developer's resilience and determination to explore new avenues.

After closing the business, the developer embarked on a transformative journey. He began building several specialized AI agents for personal use, each focused on a different area. These agents, such as Ida for therapy, Gary for social media strategy, and Todd for business advice, are designed to help him improve various aspects of his life. This personal growth journey, powered by AI, is a testament to the potential of technology in our lives.
