How I digitally twinned myself – and why you should, too

I set her traits to natural, friendly and consistent. I set her communication style to chatty, empathetic and curious. One user said she asked too many questions, but others said no, I do that, so I left it.

Instead of making her my private AI (to help me remember things) or a shared AI (to talk with people I’ve specifically approved, e.g., paying clients), I made her public, to talk with anyone and everyone (much like myself, CJ1). She’s set to auto-respond, but I could have set her to copilot if I wanted to review and then send.

I gave her a landing page (CJ2.personal.ai), a bio and an opening phrase for conversations, letting people know that she has a similarity score to CJ1. If her answer to a question is less than 45%, maybe you should check with CJ1.
