Japan has created a digital clone of a minister who is smarter and more evolved than a real person

Japan has developed a digital doppelganger of local digital minister Taro Kono.

Details

Simply speaking, it is a robocopy of a living person, which is his improved version: according to scientists, the clone has improved physical and mental abilities. But externally, judging by the photos, it was not possible to achieve a full copy.

Such avatars will help people, especially government employees, to be in several places at once. In the future, the owners will be able to simultaneously lead several of their clones.

Besides, the minister's clone will help understand how people perceive such roboclones and whether they will be able to replace real people in future. The Moonshot program aims to create a society by 2050 in which people will be free from the limitations of body, brain, space and time.
