Artist and neuroscience expert Michelle Huang has achieved the ability to speak to her past self through an AI bot that she created.
Huang took to Twitter to show that her AI chatbot is trained on her childhood diary entries.
According to Huang, the goal was to "engage in real-time dialogue" with the younger version of herself in order to have the inner-child discussion that many of us wish we could have.
"I kept diaries for about 10+ years of my life, writing almost everyday — about my dreams, fears, secrets the content ranged from complaining about homework, to giddiness i felt from talking to my crush some days were very mundane, some rather insightful," Huang wrote as part of her initial posts.
"In any case, there was a lot of it. fantastic, ripe data source for my experiment i used gpt-3 as my playground, and ended up taking samples of text from a bunch of different entries that I felt were representative of my personality and values during that time," she continued.
