Zoom CEO Eric Yuan has a wild idea: use AI to send digital doppelgängers to meetings so you can ditch the drab virtual sessions. Train AI clones tailored to your different jobs and poof - you're "present" without really being there!
Sounds great in theory. But one techie says bosses may like your bot so much, they hire it to replace you while you lounge on the beach without a salary. And networking is crucial for career growth - will clones connect as well as you?
Even Yuan admits today's AI can't truly substitute for IRL human bonding. Maybe in 5 years though, when bots handle 90% of tasks.
In the meantime, enjoy this thought experiment about work-life harmony. Personally, I'll take real face time with my colleagues over a robot stand-in any day! Let me know your wild tech predictions for the future of nine-to-fives.
