Imagine a high-level Meta staffer seeking input from the top executive, only to receive it from an artificial intelligence version of Mark Zuckerberg rather than Zuckerberg himself. Though it might seem far-fetched, this scenario could soon become possible.
According to the Financial Times, Meta is developing an AI persona modeled after Zuckerberg, incorporating his behavioral patterns, speaking style, and comments from public sources. This digital figure is also being educated on the executive's perspectives regarding current corporate directions, aiming to provide guidance to staff members.
For a while, the firm has been developing lifelike, three-dimensional animated AI figures capable of handling conversations. The effort is now centering on this particular Zuckerberg-inspired AI, designed to engage with team members during times when the actual leader is unavailable or prefers not to participate.
This new AI resource comes after revelations from last month about Zuckerberg's work on an AI assistant to support his daily tasks, as covered initially by the Wall Street Journal. The tool is expected to handle tasks such as retrieving information on his behalf, though specifics remain limited as the technology is still in early stages.
