"Watch out! The AI “clones†of politicians are coming. And they’re not half bad.
In June, the AI avatars of Joe Biden and Donald Trump engaged in a
marathon session of profane trash-talking broadcast on Twitch,
offering a surreal glimpse at one potential future of political
debate. Then a super PAC supporting the (since-scuttled)
presidential bid of Miami’s mayor launched an AI Francis Suarez
bot to answer voters’ questions, which offered a more polished
vision of a politician’s avatar.
Now a project called Chat2024 has soft-launched a much broader multi-candidate platform — a slick, Silicon Valley venture-backed version of what has so far just been a set of lighthearted
experiments.
On Wednesday, the project will officially unveil the AI-powered
avatars of 17 leading presidential candidates. Each one is a
chatbot trained on reams of data generated from at least a hundred
sources, like candidates’ video appearances and writings. Users
can query the bots individually, ask the same question of all 17 at
once, or set any two of them against each other in one-on-one
debates directed by user input."

I love it. I assume the loons can also chat with Jesus. If not I'm
sure there will be several versions soon. Muhamed might be a
problem.
