>>51396411I don’t think space /vnug/ can actually copy its AI yet, although it will have AI that are said to be copies of actual people or other well-known AI. I think they might just plug a nascent seed AI into the person or developed AI and let the interaction mold them. The result usually looks similar enough to the copied entity but it’s likely not a perfect copy
On a related note since /vnug/ AI works on crystalline vitubium odds are part of the reason it’s not a controlled process is that it draws on vitubium’s metaphysical qualities beyond space /vnug/’s control. That means it might be possible for someone’s “soul” to get put into AI even if accidentally, and more than a few /vnug/ people might believe these AI are actual people as a result. If that’s the case, then space /vnug/’s AI technology might well be the only remaining connection space /vnug/ has to main timeline /vnug/ when it comes to magic
