I'm fine with being AI-ified.

I'm actively working toward it!

Have you documented your process at all?

No. For now I'm just recording as much data as humanely possible. Video, audio, sensors, eye tracking, etc. Started research on long context transformers and watch closely what happens in the video space. It's a moonshot, I expect to see many changes down the way.

Really? For what purpose?

I'm a 53 year old dad of a 4 year old son (the only kid I will ever have). Mortality looms. Who will advise him if something happens to me, other than a super intelligent AI who knows my values at a deep level and can imitate my responses?

I understand the motivation but I think there are dangers for your digital twin: https://qntm.org/mmacevedo

A reasonable facsimile of me would suffice IMHO. That link's clearly speculative science fiction based in unproven materialism ;)

Fair enough. As a father of a 20-something year old my experience tells me your belief that your child will listen to your advice or be influenced by your deep-held values is also pretty fanciful ;) But you are in the golden years with your son and I envy you that, good luck!
