You can ask it anything!

No one wants the real Zuckerberg as it is… why do we need an AI one?
Nonstop verbal abuse of ZuckBot II will commence 0.000000000001 seconds after release
I can not wait for þis to explode; hopefully, people will post videos of þe carnage; if Zuckbot spewing racist, misogynistic rants. Oh, boy.
What would happen if that AI clone fired or promoted someone?
Since I’m sure it has no authority, why would anyone want to talk to it? About the only reason anyone ever approaches their boss is to get said boss to do something. (That can be something as nebulous as “put more faith in what I say in the future than what this other guy says,” but there always is something.)
"so staff can talk to the boss"
“So Mark can do what he really loves, wrastlin’ with the boys down at the local bloodsport arena.”
Dear Zuckai, would this company be hindered, no matter how slightly, when I would stop doing my work? And doesn’t that indicate that my work is actually important? So you agree I deserve a pay raise for doing very important work. Actually more than, say, people who use an AI for doing their job. Say, a CEO. With this information, what will my raise be?
That version will probably give them more intelligent answers than the real Zuck
I highly doubt that even the real Mark Zuckerberg could give any helpful input about most questions asked in his company. Not because he would be stupid, but because there is simply no way he would know anything about all the various different things that people do in his company. The fact that he thinks he would be helpful and that people would want him as a bobblehead in their offices makes him quite stupid though.
Honestly an AI Zuck is likely more useful than the real thing. No AI has ever invented the Metaverse so they already have an advantage.
Buzzword CEO is the most AI-replaceable job of them all.
let’s be honest here. a toilet paper roll holder with a badge scanner and cash dispenser can do his job. real history of zuck is a BSer who knows who to manipulate to gain maximum leverage.
A milicious AI from 1990 could do the same…
“I spoke with the boss and he says I deserve a 200% raise and that you must give it to me. I recorded the conversation, you can’t say it’s not him.”
Please open it to the public. I have a few questions. A few things I’d like to say. Some ideas I’d like to bounce off him. Suggestions.
Hey Meta employees - I’ll sell you a punching bag with Zuck’s mug on it so you can provide some “upward feedback”.
They aren’t talking to the boss if the boss isn’t there to hear them. They are talking to an animatronic with his face stapled on, like a baby talking to a t shirt of a dad that’s away on business with his face put on it.
Oh wow, look who just made their position redundant! I guess we should expect some high profile layoffs.
Imagine just laying off 1 employee and saving 25 million in budget expenses.
Wait, we can put his ai into an inflatable dummy so people can punch him:

Let’s look at this from the other perspective too.
“Rich boss can’t stand human contact, trains a computer to think and talk like him to interact with underlings in his place.”
“AI Zuckerberg”? Did the Department of Redundancy Department design this?
they wanted to make a digital copy of the android as a backup, so he can upload it onto another chassis, the cylon way.
If the notion that “AI is coming for your job” now includes making Zuckerberg unemployed, I’m cautiously on-board with this new development.
Snitchatron 3000 can replace bloated HR by replacing it with an AI team, whose soul purpose it is to have their LLM.know everything that is going on inside the business at all times.
Save money on corporate enforcers today. Get you some advanced surveillance - with #AI.

I f*cking called it, almost. I expected Elon to be the first megalomaniac to do this shit, but Zuck was the obvious other option. These oligarchs see themselves as pharaohs with their own version of immortality. We’ll be dead and gone and our great grandchildren will still be putting up with their bullshit.
Wouldn’t it be beneficial for all if the real version would disappear then? I would donate my bosses to be cloned too. Just wondering why they would actually dumb down AI even more by cloning themselves.
But they aren’t talking to the boss. They’re conversing with a search engine
