I want create a digital clone of myself. Last month, I scanned decades of journals and recorded music. Next up: organize a personal corpora and apply some ML. Hopefully, the clone will be more interesting than the original.
This is inspired by a conversation I had with Rudy Rucker, who suggested a "headstone". More recently, I read a Wired article where someone used "pullstring" to create an interactive version of his Father, who passed [1]. And then there is Margareta Magnussen's concept of saving your loved ones the chore of slogging through your clutter [2].
I think that I have way too much digital content. Am not famous, so who cares? And yet, my life might make a good toy: worth a few minutes of entertainment. Pull string, indeed.
Thank you. Just realised that of course this will be a common thing in the future to talk with your ancestors and the more data the ML has, the more real it will feel.
