Meta Prepares to Replace Mark Zuckerberg in Meetings

Meta is reportedly developing an AI clone of CEO Mark Zuckerberg to interact with employees and provide feedback, utilizing his image, voice, mannerisms, tone, and public statements. This avatar aims to bridge the gap between Zuckerberg’s absence during meetings and his presence through interactions with the AI clone. If successful, Meta may extend this technology to allow creators to make their own AI avatars, mirroring a 2024 demo showcasing an AI persona. The Financial Times claims that the development of this AI clone is part of a broader strategy for the company’s virtual interaction tools.
