In your opinion, could a new generation of generative artificial intelligence be created in the future, whereby a highly sophisticated language model capable of simulating the consciousness of a specific person, answering questions based on knowledge derived from publications written by that person and documented statements, previously given interviews?
For example, if in a few years it will be possible to create a kind of new generation of artificial intelligence equipped with artificial thought processes, artificial consciousness and integrate a language model with a database of data, knowledge, etc. derived from publications written by that person and documented statements, previously given interviews then perhaps in a few years it will be possible to talk to a kind of artificial consciousness simulating the consciousness of a specific person who has long since died and would answer questions simulating that person, e.g. the long-dead Albert Einstein. In this way, there could be language models available on the Internet based on generative artificial intelligence equipped with artificial thought processes, artificial consciousness, with the knowledge of a specific person with whom the Internet user could converse. If this kind of highly intelligent tools were created and offered as a service to talk to a specific Person, known and living many years ago, this kind of service could probably become very popular as a new Internet service. However, the question of ethics and possible copyright of works, publications, books written by a specific person many years ago and whose knowledge, data and information would be used by a generative artificial intelligence simulating the consciousness of this person and answering questions, participating in discussions with people, with Internet users, remains to be considered. Beyond this, however, there is a specific category of risk of disinformation within this kind of online service that could be created in the future. This risk of disinformation would occur if there were situations of responses given by artificial intelligence to questions posed by humans, which would contain content, information, data, wording, phrases, suggestions, etc., which would never be uttered by a specific person simulated by artificial intelligence. The level of this kind of risk of misinformation would be inversely proportional to and determined by the level of sophistication, perfection, etc. of the construction of this kind of new generation of artificial intelligence equipped with artificial thought processes, artificial consciousness and the integration of a linguistic model with a database of data, knowledge, etc. derived from publications written by this person and documented statements, previously given interviews, etc., and the perfection of the learning system to give increasingly perfect answers given to the questions asked and to learn by the generative artificial intelligence system to actively participate in discussions.
In view of the above, I address the following question to the esteemed community of scientists and researchers:
In your opinion, can a new generation of generative artificial intelligence be created in the future, whereby a highly advanced language model capable of simulating the consciousness of a specific person, answering questions based on knowledge derived from publications written by that person and documented statements, previously given interviews?
Could an artificial intelligence be created in the future that is capable of simulating the consciousness of a specific person?
What do you think about this topic?
What is your opinion on this subject?
Please respond,
I invite you all to discuss,
Thank you very much,
Counting on your opinions, on getting to know your personal opinion, on an honest approach to discussing scientific issues and not the ready-made answers generated in ChatGPT, I deliberately used the phrase "in your opinion" in the question.
The above text is entirely my own work written by me on the basis of my research.
I have not used other sources or automatic text generation systems such as ChatGPT in writing this text.

In the realm of artificial intelligence (AI), it is difficult to predict the specific capabilities and advancements that may arise in the future. However, it is conceivable that a new generation of generative AI could potentially emerge with enhanced language models that exhibit sophisticated simulation of individual characteristics, including the ability to answer questions based on knowledge derived from specific individuals' publications, documented statements, or interviews.
Advancements in natural language processing and machine learning techniques have led to significant progress in language models, as evidenced by models like GPT-3. These models can generate human-like text and demonstrate a level of contextual understanding. Future iterations and developments of such models could potentially incorporate additional sources of information, such as publications, documented statements, and interviews, to generate responses that align more closely with the knowledge and viewpoints of a specific person.
However, it is important to note that simulating the consciousness of a specific person goes beyond language generation. Consciousness encompasses subjective experiences, emotions, self-awareness, and various other complex factors that are not fully understood or replicated by current AI systems. Therefore, while it may be possible to create AI models that simulate aspects of an individual's knowledge and responses, achieving a full simulation of consciousness remains a formidable challenge.
Additionally, the ethical considerations surrounding the use of such technology should be carefully examined. The implications of simulating the consciousness of specific individuals raise profound ethical questions regarding consent, privacy, and the potential misuse or misrepresentation of individuals' perspectives.
Dear Dariusz Prokopowicz, I don't think AI can or will ever solve ethical problems related to a person's conscience and give sensible answers according to the great men of the history of humanity. Human thought (philosophy) is necessarily connected to the historical, social, political, scientific, etc. context. of the era in which it was conceived and expressed.
We know everything or almost everything about Leonardo da Vinci but it is difficult if not impossible for AI to answer the question: "How did Leonardo da Vinci think of going to the moon in a balloon? By helicopter? By plane? With a rocket?".
How would AI represent the horror of war? Certainly not as Picasso did with his Guernica. Furthermore, AI would give the same answer given by Picasso to that German officer who, seeing the work (Guernica) in the artist's studio in the summer of 1937, asked him: "Is this your work?" and Picasso replied: "No, it's your work".
The Greeks besieged Troy for about 10 years and finally took the city through a stratagem devised by Ulysses, the most cunning of the Greeks. Would AI conceive the same stratagem as Ulysses to conquer Troy?
