Zoom CEO wants to create AI digital clones to go to meetings for you
NY Post
Meetings might soon become a thing of the past.
The CEO of Zoom is hoping to create “digital-twin technology” so workers can have an artificial intelligence version of themselves attend meetings and participate in other time-consuming parts of the workday.
“I can send a digital version of myself to join so I can go to the beach,” Eric Yuan told The Verge.
A “digital twin” is essentially a deepfake version of yourself that would be able to attend your meetings and even make decisions on your behalf.
The 54-year-old CEO and his team at the video conferencing platform are working on leveraging AI to “fully automate” this aspect of work.
“Today we all spend a lot of time either making phone calls, joining meetings, sending emails, deleting some spam emails, and replying to some text messages, still very busy,” Yuan said.
