While there is merit in this line of thought, it does not give an entirely complete picture. It has widely been held that AI can’t have subjective experiences of thought and emotions like humans, and therefore, in essence, it would always be different from us. This would open a Pandora’s box and have a far reaching impact on our human psyche and society. On a philosophical level, we may need to confront the issue of what makes humans special and sets them apart from highly sophisticated computer programmes. This could potentially enable us to communicate with individuals posthumously, thereby creating a digital afterlife of sorts. Taking this a step further, some people are working on uploading human minds on a computer. There could also be multiple AI versions of my personality. In fact it can be tweaked to make a better version of me, one who does not have bad days.

It could become possible to create my chatbot replica, which would talk exactly like me. By 2029, we may have AI replicas of human beings which would be non-distinguishable from their real forms in conversations.
