Welcome to another episode of I TellYou What. So can you imagine now
before you get too gleeful here,okay, because I'm going to say something
that's going to make your little ryelittle smile get even more wrye me dying
right now? See see I knewthat Gartner to laugh? No, why

(00:21):
would you say that? Because AIcould make a new me? What saw
that? Did you see that?Yeah? Well do they always invent this
stuff? In Germany? You noticethat? Yeah? What are they doing
over there? Well it's very sadthough. This guy, he's sixty one
years old, he is terminal cancer, but he spent months training AI basically

(00:45):
to act just like him. Ohno, so he can interact with his
family and answer questions even after he'sgone. Have you seen blackmir No,
there's this episode in it, butkill ahead, Oh go ahead. So
basically okay, Well, in theepisode, it doesn't turn out. Well,
I'm just saying because as the familycontinues to grow and create memories,

(01:07):
the AI can't. So the AIis programmed to the point where the husband
here can remember or has the memories, but there's nothing new that can be
formed. Well that this guy's doingit different. This is give me better
than that? Can he do it? His name, well, the first
customer they're calling him Eternos, Well, it's the services called Eternos, and

(01:30):
he's the first customer of this thingthat they put together. Eternos will take
your personality, throw out an AI, make your own AI double and he
has been training AI to actors.Like. The only thing that's kind of
weird about this is if you're dying. And I don't want this to sound
insensitive in any way, but Iimagine you're not really you when you're going
through terminal cancer. I mean,there's a lot of things your life has

(01:53):
changed. I imagine I know minewould. I would be may become a
completely different person, maybe for thebetter, maybe for the I don't know.
I doubt i'd be really me.So when you want to do this
when you're not going through something likethat, unless maybe you only give it
the information, you only feed AIthe stuff that you want to feed it,

(02:14):
I guess, but you'd think goingthrough terminal cancer, that's a different
you. Yeah, it might changehow you would answer some questions. I
mean, it says that they hadit that the program had asked him one
hundred and fifty different questions about himselfin his life, and so he spent
several weeks answering them at length.And I would think that you would absolutely
answer things differently when you know,you know, you're in that headspace versus

(02:36):
I don't know, twenty years beforethat, you're right, years before you
everyone remembers. Yeah, because there'ssometimes there's the you that's changed a lot,
many times for the better, butstill different. Some people go from
a very joking personality to a moreserious one. Others go from a more
serious personality and I'm going to livemy life and be a jokester. See.
Yeah, I think that this wouldbe really difficult. I would think

(02:59):
actually for the families, because it'snot really their person it's not really their
loved one. Maybe it's simulating thata little bit, but I mean,
ultimately, when you lose someone,I mean you've lost them, and I
think kind of like pretending that they'restill here. I know it might bring
some temporary comfort, but I don'tthink that it's really the answer. Yeah,

(03:21):
you're not, like, I don'tknow, Well, I just imagine
my wife and kids driving back frommy funeral and then AI me popping on
where it is. Well, thatwas fun. Yeah, you never have
to do that again because I'm goingto live forever, you know, I
mean what kind of smart responses willhave And you want to imagine that loved
one going you know to the places, the places long and you want to

(03:45):
say, a transitory piece here rightin our opinions, right right, costs
like ten to fifteen grand. That'sthat's not bad. I think if you
got to have money to throw aroundto do something like this, because otherwise,
I mean, wouldn't you just ownthem and then you're not it's not
the same person. Yeah, butthen you get the DNA and all that
stuff involved. Have they done that? I mean, I know they've done

(04:05):
it with sheep that's been around fora long time. Yeah, they've done
it with not just sheep. Ithink there's been other animals too. But
was there some story about them?I don't think they Somebody try to do
people. Have they done body parts? Does that make sense? Well,
they make stuff with the you know, stem cell regeneration and everything, Okay,
I know, Yeah, there's currentlyno solid scientific evidence that anyone has

(04:28):
cloned human embryos. Well, I'llbe the first somebody in nineteen ninty eight
claim to have successfully done it,but they only got it to a group
of four cells, which was veryfar. That's about all. I got
a lot. I don't know ifI have that many. They got them
under by a cellar two on thatone. I think you do. I
don't know. I agree with Sam. I think you don't have any time

(04:50):
to process like losing somebody because thatperson is just there even though it's not
them. Well, unless you wentinto it differently and you know that it's
not them, and you did itto be fun, you know what I
mean, then there's no real attachmentthere. Then you just go to okay,
let's just go to fake Chris.But then do you turn them off
when you're like, okay, I'mdone with that. You guys do now?

(05:10):
Do we just around shots? Youknow me? But I just don't.
Yeah, I don't know if anybodybelieves that by the way that I
leave at this place at ten o'clock, you are that is absolutely that was
a lie. There are tons ofradio people radio who do who do leave
as soon as their show is donethere. I'm not one of them.

(05:30):
No, we just sit here andhang out all day. Yeah, we
we just we just hang out andbother people. Yeah, it'll be like
a one PM and we're hanging outin our boss's office and somebody walk by
and be like, why aren't whyare you guys here? We are doing
things. By the way, forthose of us playing along at home,
yes, well, this is kindof I don't know, it's it's not
for everybody. I kind of getit, you know. I mean there's

(05:51):
a movie what what's the guy's name? Michael Keaton is in it. He's
dying in the movie, and herecords all of these video messages for his
kids. Yeah, and he getsstuck on the sex talk? Was it
my life? Probably by Michael Key? I could be, yeah, but
he he talks about all this stuff. Okay, let's talk about girls or

(06:13):
whatever. We talk about this,that's about that. But then it comes
down to sex talk. Okay.Now, there's sometimes where you're gonna have
feelings and you're really gonna like thisperson, you know, and then you're
gonna okay, hold on, I'mgonna do this again later and then yeah,
he stops. I think that's somethingabout videos or cards. Like I
know a lot of people who aresuffering from cancer terminal cancer who write letters,
you know, so you can openthem at certain different graduations, proms,

(06:34):
you know, weddings, things likethat. I think that's fine.
I like handwritten like some of theold birthday cards for my mom. I
think it's cool. Yeah, see, I love like I love that.
I think that that is super specialtoo, because I've seen that like online
where people will yeah, like ifthey're going to pass away before their daughter's
wedding or their son's wedding or something, and then they write something that says
like open this on your wedding day. And I think that that is super

(06:57):
super special and that does he walkout like surprise, I'm alive. Yeah,
you open it here. I am. I thanked my death for the
last seventeen years. I don't thinkthat's what happened. But they'll make a
good movie though, Yeah, acceptingwhat would you be for seventeen years?
Yeah, but sometime maybe you hadto Maybe it's an alien thing. He

(07:17):
had an induction thing, you knowwhat I mean. We had to go
save the planet or something. Youknow what I mean. I've just lept
my mind wander here, work withme a little bit. A good reason
to leave your family, you know, like the dude in Meteor Bruce Willis
and his daughter. They're saying goodbye, you know what I mean, and
then he's the one they had toblow up the meter I'm getting and he
went with it. Yeah that one, Yeah that don't want him? Is

(07:41):
the thing? That one? Yeahyeah yeah right. So but you miss
