Digdeep Podcast: Should Everyone Have Their Own AI Twin, Prof. Dr. Albrecht Schmidt?
News From the Digital World by MCML PI Frauke Kreuter and Christof Horn
In the new episode of #digdeep, our PI Albrecht Schmidt talks about the possibility and chances of AI twins in the future.
Everyone uses AI based chatbot models. Would it also be possible to have our own AI model trained with our life data?
Such personalized AI models could act as digital twins, coaches, or advisors, thus expanding our capabilities. In our daily lives, we already collect a wealth of data about ourselves that could be used to develop such models. Although this idea may seem dystopian at first glance, at second glance it offers a fascinating opportunity for more democratic and individualized support.
Prof. Albrecht Schmidt from LMU Munich focuses on the collaboration between humans and computers and encourages reflection on the future digital world.
An exciting excursion into the question of what kind of digital world we want and can live in in the future!
Just listen in (podcast in German).
