Ask HN: Would you cooperate with relative/friend who wants to make an AI "you"?

And if so, to what lengths would you go to make this AI version of you accurate?

No.

When they want to talk to me, they can talk to me.

If they want to talk to me after I’m dead… they will need to come to terms with me being dead. I don’t see how a jumped up Markov chain pretending to be me will help with that.

Way too Black Mirror for me.

You wouldn’t know what they were doing with ‘you’. That is kind of creepy. God, they could be putting ‘you’ into a sex doll and trying to have a piece of your personality in there.

Is that what you want?

Maybe your relative/friend wants to continue to receive your advice after you die?

But it wouldn’t be mine. It would be a guess. If you asked my opinion on something today, it might not be the same opinion I give tomorrow.

If it truly was yours, it would say "stop this shit; delete me."

No, I would not cooperate with anyone who wants to make an AI version of me, for any purpose. I accept that I will die; life is all the richer for it.
