Future of Speaking: Can Clones Replace Us?

TJ Walker explains how his AI clone can deliver keynote talks using only his published materials, but acknowledges it won't answer questions the same way he would. The other speaker worries whether audiences will know they're watching a clone instead of the real person.

Now I started something recently almost as a, not a complete joke, but almost. I started a cloning speaker bureau. And so my clone is available to give keynote speeches. In theory, someone can have their clone speaking and then have their, their slides, their PowerPoint slides coming up and down. Others might say, well, that's too gimmicky and we want the real person. Do you see clones being a part of people? Because I, I. Let me step back. I do see clones as a part of, of the future. So many executives, experts are asked to give speeches all the time. And let's say someone needs me in, in Hyderabad where you are, but it needs to be 9am Your time. Well, that's one in the morning for me. I just, I can't get up, especially if they're not paying a full fee. But I could have my clones speak at any length of time and do Q and A. So I, I really do see that happening. But I'm wondering what you see as the future as AI takes a lot of different forms, clones being one of them.
This is, this is something that's, you know, it's still evolving to say what's going to happen in the next few years. It's very difficult because we did not know a few years ago what would happen today. And having said so about the clone stuff, you, you say you, your clone goes and represents you. But then what if some questions are asked of the clone? Okay. And the clone gives answers AI fed into the clone. But isn't it possible that if you were there, live in person, you probably would have given a different answer?
Well, you know, I tested that. First of all, my clone doesn't pull. And the way most people's clones are, if they do it right, it's not pulling from the Internet. It's only pulling from my books and, you know, my other books and my online courses and my YouTube, what I've actually said on YouTube. So if someone asked me something that I haven't written about or talked about, my clone is programmed to say, hey, you got me. I don't know. So it's, it's transparent there. So it's not like it's going to start giving people solutions to the Middle east crisis when that's not something I've written about or talked about or want to get involved with.
