Link: Mark Zuckerberg is reportedly building an AI clone to replace him in meetings

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg could soon have an AI clone designed to interact with and provide feedback to employees. This initiative, as reported by the Financial Times, utilizes Zuckerburg's image, voice, and public demeanors.

The project aims to enhance connection between employees and the founder. If successful, Meta plans to allow other creators to develop their own AI avatars.

In previous developments, Meta demonstrated a live AI persona in 2024 and permitted creators to craft AI versions for Instagram interactions. The firm has also initiated custom AI-generated chatbots for users.

Involved directly, Zuckerberg assists in training his AI avatar and devotes several hours weekly to other AI-related projects at Meta. Despite these efforts, a similar AI agent built by Zuckerberg for personal task management remains a separate entity.

Meanwhile, Meta has recently restricted teenagers from creating these AI experiences. This move aligns with broader concerns about privacy and the ethical use of AI in social platforms.
