Alan Hamel Says He's Created an AI Clone of His Deceased Wife Suzanne Somers That's So Good He Can't Tell the Difference
""Obviously, Suzanne was greatly loved, not only by her family, but by millions of people," Hamel told People. "One of the projects that we have coming up is a really interesting project, the Suzanne AI Twin." According to the 89-year-old producer, the beyond-the-grave rendition of his partner of 55 years is indistinguishable from the real thing. Suzanne AI Twin was reportedly trained on "hundreds of interviews," as well as Somers' 27 books."
"Perhaps most strangely of all, Somers' AI clone was designed to dispense health advice, which was allegedly cleared by doctors. Given the tech's strong tendency to hallucinate facts, we'll have to take Hamel by his word that AI Somers won't be misleading the public - let alone mindlessly shilling health products currently featured on SuzanneSomers.com, where the clone will eventually be hosted."
Alan Hamel created an AI clone of his late wife Suzanne Somers, using hundreds of interviews and her 27 books as training material. The Suzanne AI Twin is described as visually and conversationally indistinguishable from Somers, and Hamel reported being unable to tell the difference when viewing them side by side. The clone is designed to dispense health advice that was allegedly cleared by doctors and will be hosted on SuzanneSomers.com. Observers warn that large language models can hallucinate facts, creating risks of misinformation and commercialized promotion. Somers died of breast cancer at 76 in 2023.
