1 plays · Jun 15, 2026

our digital twin is already being built — and you probably signed away the rights in a terms-of-service agreement you never read. Rob Enderle, principal analyst at The Enderle Group, joins Jeremy and Jason to stress-test the next wave of AI avatars: the technology that can replicate your face, voice, and decision-making patterns well enough to attend your meetings, sign your contracts, and — if someone hostile gets hold of it — torch your reputation or your life. The conversation covers who owns your avatar after you die, whether autonomous AI weapons taking out human targets is a near-term reality (yes), and why the people most likely to fix this problem are also the ones racing fastest to cause it.
