Aesona’s vision for user-owned AI “second selves”
An Aesona team member argues that AI should understand people without flattening their individuality—and that users should own the models built to represent them.
TLDR
A team member says Aesona is building toward user-owned AI “second selves,” with the goal of helping people benefit from AI while preserving their thoughts, tastes and opinions. They identify open questions: how to represent a person over time, measure alignment with that individual, and help users fill gaps in what the model knows about them. Another challenge is deciding what a second self should refuse to say about its user, including how users could create disclosure policies and how those policies should be enforced.
