I've thought of this since GPT 3.5 - we're probably never going to live the science fiction plot of "uploading" our consciousness to a computer in the act of a transfer, and leaving our physical bodies to inhabit a new digital form. But today, right now, we can create an AI startup that asks a person 2,000 questions -- 10 a day -- and in less than a year's time, have complete prediction on their thoughts, mannerisms, textual behaviors, views and perspectives. Character.ai is an example of it in practice for all types of people, alive and dead, TODAY.
With its wide-ranging application, though, I find myself worried that this technology's natural implications for ignoring the sacredity of the mortality of one's intellect could be a dire consequence in certain situations. Bad people asking, "I wonder what {{other bad person}} would think about X" is a very real concern here.
