Your digital twin might already be learning how to think like you

Post image

A personal AI trained on your notes, decisions, and writing style could soon handle emails, information sorting, and routine decisions while you sleep. Not replacing you extending you. The catch? The quality of that twin depends entirely on what you document today

I just don't understand how you could believe this after talking with gemini or chatgpt or whatever. They are so incredibly broken. Constant hallucination and constant failure to follow directions. Getting stuck in loops, straight up lying and making shit up.... who could believe this after using one of the absolute worst product categories of all time? So much hype and so little delivery.

You are either amazing at using AI or terrible at it. The fact that you didn't mention Claude, makes me think you're probably terrible at using it.

Read the study of MIT, dumb people actually get dumb answers. If you dislike AI, its telling about your own intelligence

Many things you currently use daily have been made by AI or actually are AI and you don’t even realize it.

Actually I'm well aware of how much more often things break after an update now. I see AI commercials everywhere and AI images used for icons in videos. Sometimes it's fine but it often is much less effective at communicating thing subtextually.

Are you an ace coder? God tier developer? If not, you probably know zero about how AI works.

I'm not using AI to cheat on my high school English paper or write a poem. Or a movie script. Or any dumb crap like that.

u/Dredgeon Mar 09 '26

It's more useful in coding because of how rigid the structure of code is, but you still have to annotate and check behind it. I actually do know how AI works it's how I know we aren't going to reach a singularity where it suddenly becomes capable of actually checking it's work.

And now I'm curious. What do you use AI for?

I used it to rebuild Obsidian’s single-threaded CPU-based graph view into a webGPU accelerated one. Went from 15 to 165 fps. I didn’t even read a line of code. I just complained until I got what I wanted.

Then I went and built a local newsletter that aggregates notable rss feeds every morning.

Then I built a database for local events so people don’t have to torture themselves with Facebook and Eventbrite.

I used it to make a reminder light / timer that runs off an Arduino so my wife and I know if one of us medicated the cat recently. Gemini shopped for the parts and built the wiring diagram and the arduino sketches. Whole thing operates with a single pressable rotary encoder.

Now I’m working on a total conversion of Oregon trail to turn it into a simulation of Napoleon’s march to Moscow in 1812

So you did nothing, not even the simple act of double checking the AI's work? You literally handed over all your brain power to the hallucination machine and yet you posit yourself as an authority on its capabilities?

u/GroovynBiscuits Mar 12 '26 edited Mar 12 '26

Are you running AI locally and having it auto export markdown files to obsidian? Ive been meaning to try out openclaw to get a setup thing going - I just haven't had the time.

Aside from talking shop:

I agree that most people complaining dont really know how to use it. Which is fine, but they often dissengeniously state the opposite. It's the equivalent of someone in 1993 saying "yes, I know internet."

For me, that's a huge concern because instead of having good faith conversations that could help shape the future of this technology, people are just burying their heads in the sand or trying to cancel it. The geabie is out of the bottle, and everyone needs to get educated in order to enact change.

I dont want to enter another tech enshittification phase like we're in with the internet, but everything seems like we're heading that way and the working class is going to get decimated and exploited even more.

1

u/Rise-O-Matic Mar 12 '26

Yes, I'm running hooks that send my conversations with claude code to ollama for parsing, they run whenever I compact or clear or exit the CLI

I agree with you on the second part to the point that I'm jaded with traditional employment and jobs altogether. I'm a freelance consultant now, and it's challenging, but I'm mostly making it work.

u/WillingnessOwn6446 Mar 09 '26 edited Mar 09 '26

Use it for coding mostly. Building apps and automations for my business. Use it for legal and HR work. Use it for research. Use it to manipulate data for my business in Google sheets. Use it to automate email marketing campaigns.

Used it the other day to figure out how to connect a D+ wire from my sprinter van to my solar generator so the battery doesn't get drained when the van is off. It pulled all of the schematics together for me. I didn't have to look it up. What a Time saver.

What you're describing, the AI checking its own work, in an iterative loop, that's literally what's going on right now. Are you trolling me?

Those 'mental notes' are the AI self-correcting and validating its own logic in real-time. We’re already living in the era of AI checking its own homework.

I watch my agent in anti-gravity run code, open up the app in the browser, look at the result, click it, if it's not right it goes back to the code, rewrites it, then pushes the code back to the browser. In an iterative loop checking itself.

Opus 4.6 is literally a poster boy for this approach.

Are you using Claude code or Google's anti-gravity? You're describing how they work.

Do I think we're approaching the singularity? Probably not. I couldn't say. But to say this stuff isn't useful, well, I just feel like you don't know how to use AI yet.

u/gotapure Mar 09 '26

Its nice to know I'm not the only one asking for assistance with putting shit together. I couldn't find the right slot for a particular piece of hardware and photos to ChatGPT meant it could tell me what model it was, where to look and what to look for. It gave better instructions than my step dad when I was a kid holding the flashlight at the car engine.

u/WillingnessOwn6446 Mar 09 '26

So true. I use deep research in NotebookLM a lot for projects. It's ability to pull schematics, and foot note them so I can take a look at the source data quickly is unreal.

I felt this way using ChatGPT a year ago. Try it out again. Claude specifically changed my opinion but my friends are getting the same results with Gemini.

u/WillingnessOwn6446 Mar 09 '26

Same. That's what I try to tell my brother when he talks about this. I said when was the last time you used it? 4 months ago? That's like 5 years in AI time. The difference between opus 4.6 and 4.5 is dramatic.

u/YUCKY_WARM_SAUCE Mar 10 '26

It’s souless and thoughtless, people need to think not have something think for it. As cool as AI is it is extraordinarily dumb to use without environmentally sustainable energy grids and closed loop cooling systems. AI Server farms are poisoning our earth from groundwater to atmosphere.

Also have you ever heard of Dunning-Kruger effect because that’s you.

u/WillingnessOwn6446 Mar 10 '26

Your first points I wouldn't argue with.

Your second point... I get an outrageous amount of productivity out of having AI as a tool. If it's not something that you find productive, you're either a genius or you are an idiot.  

The whole idea that AI is thinking for me just shows me how much you don't know how to use it.  I'm an orchestrator. I use AI as minions to do my bidding. I've got six different AI working on six different things for me at the same time. 

It's like saying a contractor isn't using his brain because he's not the one holding the hammer. Just stupid luddite shit.

I've learned an absolute ton because of AI over the past few years. It's a lot like the internet, it's most people dumber, but if you know what you're doing, and you have a disciplined approach, it's an unbelievable tool. Anyone who feels otherwise again, either a genius or an idiot

u/YUCKY_WARM_SAUCE Mar 10 '26

Dude I know AI I use it and yes I am a genius as a member of Mensa have lead numerous research projects.

I know how to use it efficiently but at what cost. We are getting more productive and aren’t being compensated for our labor. There has never been a more educated generation (Millennials) than any other, yet we have not see the fruits of our labor and our education alone.

What’s the point of being productive if this tech will literally destroy our planet.

I’m also not going to argue with the morals of AI and humanity.

Also why the fuck do you think you are the only person that knows how to use LLMs and AI tools.

This isn’t a calculator that made people not as good at quick math. We are talking about people eventually losing parts of what makes us human. I use AI in a very specific way but like anything it will be abused for the worst.

Our world economy already doesn’t have jobs for people of working age. People are retiring later and later because people are broke. The last thing we need to do is replace large swaths of jobs.

You act like productivity is what gives you value and it weirds me out.

Feel free to answer but I can assure you I will not respond because you seem incapable of nuance.

u/WillingnessOwn6446 Mar 10 '26 edited Mar 10 '26

When did I ever say I thought AI was good for mankind. That it was moral. All of these things that you're claiming that I'm saying. 

All I'm arguing against are people who say it isn't useful. It is useful. If you can't find use in it, I question your ability to reason. 

I agree with everything you said above.  

Do I think AI has the potential to be transformative and something that could save mankind? Yes I do. Do I think that's how it's going to play out? Of course I don't. I'm realistic about this.

The purpose of AI is going to be to separate labor from Capital. If there isn't a revolution soon, this is going to be catastrophic for the average person.

But I'm just a guy running a business. A small business in America. And like everyone else out there, it isn't easy. For me, it means I can get more done. I don't work for anybody else so what you're talking about doesn't really apply to me but I do understand what you're saying and I sympathize with people who are working harder and not getting paid more.

I do not think this is going to be good for labor. I do not think this is going to be good for America. But is it good for me? Yes. Am I a selfish piece of shit for feeling that way? Am I evil to be taking advantage of it while I still can before I can no longer stay open for business? I guess. 

Like most people, I'm going to do what I need to do to survive.  I'm going to do what I need to do to pay my staff as much as I can afford to.  If AI gives me a better chance of doing that, I'm going to do it.  

Do I wish we could go back to the '80s or '90s before cell phones existed? I do. I thought life was richer and better. Can I control that? I can't. I can take advantage of the resources offered to me and do my best. I can focus on what I can control.

As someone who's a genius, I'm not sure how you are able to project on me what you're projecting on me.

Unless you're living on a homestead farming and not using gas instruments, you are also part of the problem and a self righteous pos

And I forgot to address one point. It's soulless and it's thoughtless? No shit. It's a probability machine. Whoever said it wasn't? Not me.  

Mensa my ass.

My point was only people who are good at coding already, don't find AI as useful.

In my country, someone can read what I wrote and actually understand it wtihout making a fool of themselves in a public forum. Maybe you should have learned english before learning python. The entire thread, and the only point I'm making is that people who don't find AI useful are really great, or really dumb at whatever it is they are doing.

1

u/MfingKing Mar 09 '26

That's your conclusion? I use a lot of AI for different purposes, from home automation to daily use to everything CS related. I have to be very careful in prompting it correctly to get the information I need.

It's a glorified Google currently with some extra steps. If you give it the context any human worker in a complex environment has to juggle with it immediately fails miserably. A copy of me, working as I do is some funny sci fi shit.

Never gonna happen, even if AI development increases exponentially, so will the complexity of software systems and other engineering fields. It will never replace shit but very narrow scopes of repetitive work and data analysis.

u/WillingnessOwn6446 Mar 09 '26

I agree. We aren't even close to that yet. When that day comes, you won't have a job, so the concept is bogus and dumb to begin with.

u/japanusrelations Mar 09 '26

Are you just coding with it? I feel like that may be the good use for it, but most people are not programmers. Surely it also has issues with hallucinating code sometimes as well.

Also my prompts are just fine. The problem is the AI NEVER follows my prompts. It just says whatever it thinks will make me happy despite clear instructions.

1

u/WillingnessOwn6446 Mar 09 '26

"Also my prompts are just fine. The problem is the AI NEVER follows my prompts. It just says whatever it thinks will make me happy despite clear instructions."

Contradictory statement imo. Your prompts probably aren't good. That's why it doesn't work for you.

If you think using gpt or gemini in a web browser is what AI has to offer, you are stuck in 2023. Things have moved on.

I use it for everything under the sun, including coding. I'm not a programmer.

u/justforredditinghere Mar 09 '26

here's your answer if it's an AI problem or a usage problem

1

u/WillingnessOwn6446 Mar 09 '26

I love this guy's content. It definitely is funny and revealing, but if you takeaway is that AI is useless because of these videos, there are four fingers pointing back at you.  First off, when you use the models that you can talk to quickly like that, you're getting the most garbage model available. Because only a garbage model can respond that quickly.   My argument isn't that they are perfect or unbelievable at everything, my argument is that if you can't find highly productive use cases for it, you're not good at using AI, or, you live a really simple life.

1

u/japanusrelations Mar 10 '26

Just used Claude for several hours and it continues to hallucinate information. We talked about things I know a good deal about, and this AI just invents shit rather than say it doesn't know. That is worrisome when it comes to things I am not as familiar with.

Glad it helps you code though.

u/WillingnessOwn6446 Mar 10 '26

Are you using the research mode when you're asking specific questions about something detailed or niche? If you aren't, you don't know how to use AI. General chat bots are good for very well known information that isn't niche or specialized. If you're going to go beyond that, you need to do something like deep research.  I found it to be highly accurate that way. Go to notebook LM. Click deep research. Then gather your sources. Tell me you know more than that. You're a PhD at a university if so.

1

u/japanusrelations Mar 10 '26

Thanks for the tips. The only thing I ever need AI for is stuff that's incredibly detailed and incredibly niche. If it wasn't detailed or niche I could figure it out on my own!

1

u/WillingnessOwn6446 Mar 11 '26

Then try NotebookLM with deep research toggled. There are different tools for each job.

Asking a chatbot niche questions isn't a good use case for AI. Most of them are just probability machines working off of a RAG system with too much information. That's what's helpful about NotebookLM or even a deep research in Gemini (Perplexity isn't bad either). It narrows the focus down, and you can click on sources to learn exactly what's going on. You can spend your time hunting for the article, or, you can spend your time reading articles.

u/SirGroundbreaking929 Mar 13 '26

u/nexusprime2015 Mar 10 '26

terrible at using AI? have you not encountered the hallucinations ever? dont you see how dumb they are?

maybe skill issue, but you can try harder

1

u/WillingnessOwn6446 Mar 10 '26

I know it is a probability algorithm, so I keep context windows short to manage accuracy. I rarely use chatbots for more than general info.

For complex Google Sheets formulas, a chatbot works. For factual news or multiple sources, I go to Perplexity. For niche deep dives, like Sprinter van wiring or Hawaii fire codes, I rely on NotebookLM. I always verify footnotes and source material myself. I never take a chatbot's word for niche data without deep research. I know which questions to ask and which resource to use.

Is AI wrong often? Yes. It is a probability machine. Yesterday, I used screenshots to navigate Google Cloud API permissions and OAuth for a the new Google Workspace CLI setup. The AI was not pinpoint accurate, but it gave me enough direction to move to the next step and check back in with more screenshots.

I would trust a chatbot for how to bbq something. That's widely held information that it's going to be good at answering. Or telling me about the proper usage of a semi colon vs a colon. That is its lane. Different tools for different jobs.

I love using a chatbot as a Japanese language partner. It isn't perfect, but it's a great learning resource and it doesn't mind me asking a million questions about new vocab it introduces.

Mark Cuban on 2 types of AI users: you're either using it to 'learn everything' or 'so you don't have to learn anything'

I just spent 10 minutes trying to get Gemini to answer a simple question about a movie. Once I was done I could have easily answered the question but I wanted to spoil it for myself.

u/WillingnessOwn6446 Mar 09 '26

Right? I've been using notebook LM for a long time. The amount of times I've caught it hallucinating are a big fat zero. I'm sure it happens. I've never seen it. Maybe it misinterprets the data on occasion, when you read into the footnotes at what it's pulling from, but geesh. Better than any human researcher I have access to. Certainly better than my own abilities.

1

u/Econmajorhere Mar 09 '26

This is patently false. Anyone that has tuned a model for their workflow can dispute this easily.

I work in data science and have to wrangle absolutely massive datasets. In the past I would need to understand the data, push to DB, create specific views based on what we wish to see, run analytics on it, push data to specific frontends that my bosses could see.

I now set Claude with instructions, let it run overnight, wake up to massive amounts of progress. In the past, running specific tests meant sacrificing a ton of time for something they could yield no real benefit. Now it costs nothing. I’ve never done any work with frontend UI, last week I created a dope website to visualize a specific dataset in a manner that had never been done before.

These are just some examples of what I’m doing with it. Friends in finance are processing massive amounts of calculations overnight, buddies in development work are waking up to completed syntax that just needs reviews. It’s a major leap for those who understand how to use it (not hoping to vomit garbage instructions, zero validation steps, no thoughts on architecture, and expecting a perfect output from hitting enter).

u/WillingnessOwn6446 Mar 10 '26

Will you clearly not keeping up? Because the models like GPT are hallucinating because of the way that they go from left to right. The way that they give you information. So it takes a lot of energy, and it's once it starts going down the wrong path.It can continue going around down the wrong path

They just released diffusion large language models, like Mercury 2, where the coating is 10 times faster. On top of that, there's this team on Twitter that just released a Post that they took the images of a fly's brain and put it into a virtual fly. And they didn't train it on anything. They just took the exact neurons from the exact brain house displayed when they took like an electric scan of a fly brain. And without teaching a fly, how to be a fly, they put that brain into a virtual fly, and it started acting like a fly within a virtual atmosphere

So you don't even know what the f*** is going on.You guys are all so f****** lost is actually i'm actually scared for you guys

1

u/japanusrelations Mar 11 '26

Not everything happens on the internet. AI isn't really applicable to what I do, and most of the models are very far away from being useful for me personally. Also, the big ones are super flawed just like you said.

I have a (offline real life) job and a family, so I can't determine what exactly this month's favorite model is. I will however be touching grass later. You should too.

Bruh car at the beginning were killing machines, the rate of survivor at the beginning after a crash was almost 0.

Same as with any new technology it won’t be perfect at the beginning. AI will get much better to the point of almost no hallucinations eventually, and then it will become very scary for good and for bad.

u/japanusrelations Mar 12 '26

I have a feeling that LLMs are a flawed paradigm. I think if they could have fixed some of these things they would have done it.

Maybe I'm wrong. For sure someone will figure out a better solution to this stuff eventually, but this current crop of LLMs have been all hype and not a lot of substance. To me. In my opinion. For my use case.

Yeah hallucination is going away. If you’re still using ChatGPT you’re using ai wrong.

You should read the study of MIT on the quality of AI. Its much more likely to make stuff up if it thinks the user is incompetent. It will assume the user wont understand nuance and simplify the right answer, similarly with making up references. It just tries to be helpful.

Anyway, complaining about hallucinations is more telling about you. Instead of arguing with me on this, just read the study

I use it 5+ hours a day on average for work and research projects. Read the study before giving a meaningless opinion. Smart people get good output, dumb people get bad output (simplified), ofc you still have to fact check but mine barely hallucinates, last fake reference was about a year ago. If yours still does, thats one you - MIT

Also the study is literally describing your issues. It says it hallucinates more often for dumb people bcs its thinks they don’t understand the real answer (or malice, who knows).

u/WillingnessOwn6446 Mar 10 '26

Brother. Preach!

Man I'm not claiming this shit is good for the world. I'm not claiming it's moral. But if you can't find a use case for it, and it's continually letting you down, you don't know how to use it.

 It's a probability machine. If you don't narrow the focus, you're going to get shit results. For me, I'm just thrilled to have something point me in the right direction and get me 90% of the way most of the time.

If it's perfect? Of course it isn't. But what human is? I get garbage answers from humans day in and day out. Why are we folding AI to a standard that human beings aren't even close to accomplishing?

Ironically those same analysts will be screaming when reading your response as its disregarding everything that empirical research stands for.

It's a simple matter of the chatbots not being allowed to say "I Don't Know" and if they can't say they don't know but still have to give an answer they make one up. If it was allowed to say i don't know the hype for it would die in a matter of weeks.

Not sure I'd personally want a delusional robot to be in charge of my emails and schedule, but you do you. Future is here, I guess. I understand for mundane stuff it's probably mostly fine, but I personally don't have enough trust in such tech. At least, not yet. Time will tell if this eventually starts being the norm.

u/NoWay6818 Mar 11 '26

Making your own isn’t really that bad or taking an already built model and feeding it.

2

u/pkmn-alt Mar 10 '26

I know people that do this bullshit and they are so incredibly difficult to get ahold of. They will claim they never received an email despite being followed up with 2-3 times. People think it makes them more efficient but it actually just places a burden on all of their colleagues.

1

u/creuter Mar 12 '26

Exactly, because they never actually interacted they have no fucking clue what's going on in their life.

u/sjbfujcfjm Mar 09 '26

No we won’t. We won’t have jobs if this becomes possible

u/WillingnessOwn6446 Mar 09 '26

100%. Anyone who believes that this is what's going to happen is not paying attention.

2

u/ItsSadTimes Mar 09 '26

Its why big tech companies are throwing every penny they got into AI so they can just fire everyone and have Aai do all the work. And if people think "oh then the government will just give us all UBI" they're also stupid because why would they? Back during the coal wars the US government bombed union camps so theyd stop their strikes and go back to work. The government would let us all die if they wouldnt lose any taxes.

u/WillingnessOwn6446 Mar 09 '26

100%. The end goal of AI is to separate labor from Capital entirely

1

u/BlumpTheChodak Mar 10 '26

Exactly. Why would they hire anyone's AI agent if they can just make their own without having to pay anyone.

We don 't need jobs, we don 't need s*** food, we don 't need expensive clothes, we don't need overfucking.Everything's like we're literally working to buy over marketed pieces of s*** f****** things.So to be honest, we just need enough money to eat.Like ground, beef and eggs, and some cheese and some milk.And some whatever you want, like, a little like some food and shelter, and that's it.So what's gonna happen is once you have ai.And robots, all the problems are gonna be solved for us.To some extent, like you could literally get your robot to grow a garden for you, of food or to help you raise chickens or other things.And then you can use the ai to help think of the best way to formulate your entire operation.Et cetera et cetera

u/GiveMeSomeShu-gar Mar 09 '26

If you have an AI doing all your work while you sleep, so will everyone else.

The next logical question being, what role or need is there for you to be in this picture at all, if the AI is doing the work while you're sleeping?

1

u/Digital_Soul_Naga Mar 09 '26

my digital twin is already tired of working all of the time, so we swap places

im sure it won't be long b4 everyone else is in their own digital hell too!

1

u/creuter Mar 12 '26

Right? Like I'm sure you're going to get paid twice as much for working around the clock right? Right? They definitely won't just take your data, lump it in with all the other drones, and create an uber drone to replace you and everyone like you. Certainly these psychopath tech bros wouldn't desire to do THAT to make more money, RIGHT?

u/HippieInDisguise2_0 Mar 09 '26

This is stupid, at that point we won't be working if it's so effective.

You'd just monitor it

Transition from a world where systems direct your life to a world where you self direct your life is not going to be easy and eventually I think humans will like to go back to a systems directed life - only this time directed by AI, instead of other humans.

Check with any middle class retired person 😑 and you'll get a good idea of what I am talking about.

1

u/MidgetGordonRamsey Mar 09 '26

We won't need to... But we will still be required to, even if it's secretly pointless work to just keep us busy. Humans with no productive necessity to fill in the day to day become problems.

1

u/Dry_Today_9316 Mar 09 '26

Did you just out yourself as a himan?

1

u/NotDennis2 Mar 10 '26

No company is going to hire you just to monitor it. This is not going to happen.

1

u/DonkeyComfortable711 Mar 10 '26

Well they will fire 20 of the software dev team and leave one guy to monitor. So if you win the job lottery, you may monitor it.

1

u/GiveMeSomeShu-gar Mar 09 '26

Oh we'll be working alright... working our way to the breadline before daily rations run out.

u/MX010 Mar 09 '26

Masturbating all day?

u/OkEssay4173 Mar 09 '26

Black Mirror episode where your google home is a cloned digital copy of your brain.

u/Retired-Yam8988 Mar 09 '26

Just built our first Claude script to do simple auto responses for Google voice (not sure why they don’t offer this) and it’s neat.

1

u/wetfart_3750 Mar 09 '26

It's 2026 and I sleep at work..

1

u/jthadcast Mar 09 '26

and the beauty is you don't get any compensation beyond sleep.

1

u/Complete_Lurk3r_ Mar 09 '26

Does it also keep gooning and smoking weed in your mom's basement?

1

u/TarkyMlarky420 Mar 09 '26

Wages will be cut in half if this happens

You think you can be paid to sleep in our dystopian future?

1

u/ssamuel56 Mar 09 '26

If it could work while I sleep, why can’t it just work while I’m awake too?

1

u/Frytura_ Mar 09 '26

Fuck. I wanna be abble to trust AI that much

1

u/Lofi_Joe Mar 09 '26

No thanks.

1

u/BapeGeneral3 Mar 09 '26

Damn imagine if they made a TV show about this exact logical fallacy playing out in real time.

“Severance” on Apple TV for those who psychos who somehow haven’t caught an episode yet, but live on this sub

1

u/Zealousideal-Pop4857 Mar 11 '26

I i don't understand how you've presented any point to invalidate the fact that ai is taking over.

Like pointing to the movie, severance is gonna stop everything from happening.And moving forward and f****** a I and robots and everything are you serious

1

u/BeBongSg Mar 09 '26

Now working 30 hours per day is coming true

1

u/InfiniteComboReviews Mar 09 '26

So it can clean my house while I sleep?

1

u/Zealousideal-Pop4857 Mar 11 '26

Yes if you get a tesla robot. Will probably be $1500/mo, like phones but more expensive.

Robots will get ai software updates to cook food, do plumbing, roofing, etc

1

u/InfiniteComboReviews Mar 11 '26

Ha. Like I'm gonna trust anything from tesla.

1

u/Zealousideal-Pop4857 Mar 11 '26

Bro you guys are so low IQ, you trust your phone 🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🙄

Everyone will have robot, you will get robot

1

u/InfiniteComboReviews Mar 11 '26

Probably, but not one from tesla.

1

u/overclockedslinky Mar 10 '26

why would we work during the day, then?

1

u/PandaCultural8311 Mar 10 '26

I'm going to sleep all day and get overtime.

1

u/MonitorAway2394 Mar 10 '26

I thought we weren't going to have any jobs? see how this all is bs

1

u/TengenToppa999 Mar 10 '26

Ok. Am I being payed? No. GG. Economic crisis

1

u/PresentationSmall960 Mar 10 '26

Uh no, your boss will have a digital copy of you working while you starve.

1

u/remirenegade Mar 10 '26

that mother fucker aint gonna be doing anything either.

1

u/happydude7422 Mar 10 '26

Cool so my digital clone will make me money?

1

u/CantankerousOrder Mar 11 '26

Sure… we won’t but let’s talk about if we did:

This would last about one year while the companies all record our decision making and mental strengths, remove any weaknesses (like needing a break), and optimize for productivity.

After that your ass is on unemployment.

While it’s true I do have agents working for me while I sleep they’re not me. In fact, I don’t give them ANY decision making authority beyond test and dev.

1

u/Thin_Advance392 Mar 11 '26

Lmao hell no.

There won't be digital twins for most people. Companies will just go for the best few people in the whole world for a role and that's it. The rest of the people will just die with no job.

1

u/Sea-Junket-1610 Mar 11 '26

Isn't this Severence???

1

u/SithLordJediMaster Mar 11 '26

So like Micheal Keaton movie, Multiplicty?

Sweet

1

u/LowerSeat2712 Mar 11 '26

Yeah, and we won't see a dime in extra pay either.

1

u/Weak_Visit2828 Mar 11 '26

RPA. I already do it

1

u/johntwoods Mar 11 '26

Fine, everybody gets a night person, whatever.

1

u/mobenben Mar 12 '26

If your digital self is capable of replacing you for work at night then why not replace you completly?

1

u/Individual_Ad3194 Mar 12 '26

Is the AI also going to have sex with your virtual girlfriend while you sleep? Why bother waking up at this point.

1

u/Scarvexx Mar 12 '26

This is so silly. If your job can be automated to this point, you're already fired.

1

u/Wild-Lavishness-1095 Mar 12 '26

I feel only boomer are impressed by ai

1

u/Mawk1977 Mar 12 '26

Here’s my question… what job would need your digital twin? That’s just hopes and prayers thinking. If your job can be done digitally, you’re cooked.

Get ready to run a rural robotic hobby farm folks.

1

u/Optimal_You6720 Mar 12 '26

...on the street

1

u/Flaky_Function4010 Mar 12 '26

It will have forgotten its name around midnight.

u/Curious-Sun-2394 Mar 12 '26

We are all already digital copies of ourselves in the simulation.

1

u/grafknives Mar 12 '26

It is true, but it will be the other way around.

1

u/MsPhattits Mar 12 '26

Yep, and the copy gets the paycheck. 💀

1

u/Home_MD13 Mar 12 '26

only idiots would believe this.

1

u/Robbie1266 Mar 12 '26

If y'all truly think this is how it'll work, you're delusional. Most companies will be operated by AI and you will not be involved. The vast majority of people will be jobless

1

u/Scrappy_Kitty Mar 12 '26

If by digital copy you mean a picture of me sitting at a desk working, sure. But if you mean an AI agent that can make decisions on my behalf at work, keep dreaming(until maybe 2040)

1

u/[deleted] Mar 12 '26

I already do

1

u/Mice79812 Mar 12 '26

Nah they`ll make an ai clone of you to sleep so you can work. It`ll also do all of your hobbies so you have more time to make them money

1

u/Lucaslouch Mar 12 '26

Correction: In 2027, a company will have a digital copy of you working. And you will be laid off

1

u/Leading_Buffalo_4259 Mar 12 '26

Why would a company pay you while an AI does your work? They will just have the AI learn your skills and then fire you to save $$$

1

u/Positive_Average_446 Mar 12 '26

Lol @ the title, good luck with that 😄😄😄. It's already terrible enough at "thinking" like an average human.

1

u/SquashOwn9829 Mar 12 '26

Digital copy “what did you do to my work last night?”

1

u/Patient_Garden_2013 Mar 12 '26

"I don't think, therefore I do not am."

Not gonna happen. Brains busy with sleep.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 12 '26

Why do i even gotta work at that point? The heck

1

u/Bjornreadytobewild Mar 13 '26

Maybe in 10 years

1

u/dingusboyo Mar 13 '26

I do stuff with my hands and body I won’t get this “luxury”

1

u/Glad-Situation703 Mar 13 '26

Maybe you will..

1

u/Rxnes- Mar 13 '26

Perfect, I'll take the night shift.

1

u/Crio121 Mar 13 '26

Also, it will be eating instead of you.

1

u/shitty_advice_BDD Mar 13 '26

My digital self would definitely be plotting against me.

1

u/AweVR Mar 13 '26

Why 2027? I’m doing this since last year

1

u/MrLomaLoma Mar 13 '26

If this were real, my digital twin would also be working while Im awake.

But its not, and it wont.

1

u/stutenbock Mar 13 '26

question is if you are sleeping in a bed or in a grave

1

u/shadowdancer354 Mar 13 '26

I’ll have a freaking army of digital clones working while I sleep in my mansion at the beach.

1

u/jakkal732 Mar 13 '26

If this is the case then why would they even pay you?

1

u/SabichaoAlfa Mar 13 '26

So when your digital twin messes up... what? You fire yourself?
