The prospect of needing to create (so you can own) a digital model of yourself in order to have something you can use to participate in a digital world like fashion is fascinating.
I'm trying to imagine it scaling out, but I'm getting hung up on whether there will even be demand for digital representations of real human people when it's every bit as easy to customize an imaginary one. Even if I represented myself perfectly today, the image wouldn't correspond perfectly tomorrow. How far away would it have to get to stop representing "me" and become "just another made up model," with the slightly interesting back story that it was, once, long ago, based on a real human person?
- wincy 4y agoI feel like that’s the exact same question as “does Pink Floyd’s Another Brick in the Wall Part 2 still represent Roger Waters voice?” Obviously it does. He’s a 79 year old bloke but that song was recorded when he was 36 or so is still him, just him younger.
