Zuckerberg creates AI version of himself, but why?

ALBAWABA - Meta is working on a new AI-powered project to develop a digital version of CEO Mark Zuckerberg.

The aim is to enable employees to interact directly with Zuckerberg through a virtual assistant that mimics his voice, speaking style, and thought processes.

According to tech reports, the new model will be a 3D digital avatar trained on Zuckerberg's public statements, expressions, and tone of voice, with the goal of providing a more realistic communication experience within the company.

This system is expected to allow Meta's more than 70,000 employees to ask questions and receive responses similar to what Zuckerberg himself might say, reducing the need for face-to-face meetings or traditional hierarchical communication.

Project Goal

Through this innovation, Meta seeks to streamline internal communication and reduce administrative complexity, as part of a broader strategy led by Zuckerberg to integrate artificial intelligence at all levels of the company.
