You and your digital twin - 11th July 2022
A 'digital twin' is a computer copy. It's a copy of a real thing, like a car or a building. Soon, there may be digital twins of people too.
Digital twins give information to companies. The information can help the real thing. So, a twin of a car might help the real car. A digital twin of a real person might improve that person.
Sandra Wachter works at the University of Oxford. For her, digital twins of people are just an idea. They're from stories.
But Rob Enderle, a computer expert, doesn't agree. Enderle thinks they'll be here by 2030. But he knows there'll be problems.
A company could make a digital twin of a worker. That digital twin can think. It can work for free. The company might prefer the digital twin.
Perhaps we aren't yet ready for digital twins of people.
