I know this is going to trigger some of you, but I’m about to launch an AI clone of myself.
You’ll be able to interact with a version of me that looks like me, talks to you, answers your questions with patience and empathy, and even compliments you on what you’re wearing.
This AI clone is built from new technology, and we’ll be sharing this technology to show you how you can create your own digital clone at Mindvalley’s AI Summit.
That can help your clients if you happen to be a coach or a speaker.
But for now, forget everything you read above—because you have to see it to believe it.
I want you to watch this three-minute, quirky video that people are saying is probably the funniest, weirdest video I’ve ever created.
It is what happens when my AI clone actually interviews me.
And I hope it makes you laugh.
And after you’ve watched it, come back and tell me what you think.
Did it make you laugh? Cringe? Rethink the future of AI and consciousness?
Drop your thoughts in the comments below—I read every one.
AI Summit this year is bigger than ever
With incredible new speakers joining us to teach, like Cassie Kozyrkov, Noelle Russell, and Nick Sonnenberg.
Plus, we’ve got award-winning Manon Dave teaching AI-driven music creation, who is dropping a brand-new track online with Snoop Dog.
This is going to be a mind-bending experience.
FREE to Attend | July 25–27 | Live on Zoom
Can’t wait to see you there—glitch and all.
Stay real,
— Vishen
(Yes, the original one. For now.)

Vishen, Revolutionary! Embracing change takes courage. Bravo 🙂 Gina.
AI ? You expect to be paid premium rates for a scripted robot AI CGI ? Meh !!!
How would users react to being cast into data mines, profiled and modelled into generic catchall replies ? Not to well !!!
AI will replace many humans initially until the customers seek a catastrophic downward pricing reset reflecting the phenomenal cost reduction by vendors and lack of human interaction. A copy is a copy is a copy.
Who wants to be coached by an algorithm ? Who will pay for that ? What will people pay for that ? AI removes the customers / clients belief of real value. It’s just not real and we will sense it in time, while the electrical energy burden will become unsustainable rapidly.
That’s my two cents.
I Really loved this, it really made me laugh!
Vishen, what a sense of humor to let this happen and even if it was edited ( of course it was) it is so funny to see you annoyyed by that version of yourself!!! And to let us see a glimpse of the real, human, perfectionist Vishen that has made Mindvalley what it is today.
I have been a Mindvalley member since 2021 and This has been the best gift I have given to myself. It really is a plattform for growth and I am so thankful to be here.
Honestly, now that I am using AI in some tasks and for personal reflection I find it quite helpful in so many ways. So I really can’t wait for this Summit.

I wonder how this has not yet gone viral, it’s hilarious and soo funny! Loved the self irony about the whole personal development industry.
But in the other hand scary to think that people start to not being able to tell what is AI and what is real. I agree with the comment that it should be regulated by law.
I enjoyed the interview. I have been a supporter of you and quite a few of the interesting people you have included in your programs. I review these often.
So I feel like I know you, at least from my computer to you on stage, etc.
But the real Vishen could have been either one of you. One play acting to be the real man or AI?
Fascinating and I do hope you will identify who is who. Well done, yet somewhat scary for my generation. We are still trying to accept the internet. Hahahaha
Vishen, your interview had me totally entertained—right up until that ending, which honestly made me laugh out loud! 😂
Hilarious… and as well as terrifying. AI is wild.
As a holistic therapist who believes in the concept of mind-body-spirit, I can’t help but feel that AI—impressive as it is, however, can come across a little soulless vacuous tool in many respects.
In terms of business, AI is a game-changer for innovation and productivity. Largely, it needs to be handled with serious care.
A Brave New World might be closer than we think—and it’s definitely not just science fiction anymore.
Oh wow Vishen, that was so surreal watching your interview! You just got roasted by your AI clone! Haha, he was really funny and knew just how to poke your sensitive spots that most people wouldn’t dare try to do! Loved it!
I also want to add that I admire your forward-thinking approach and have always been so impressed with Mindvalley and what you have to offer people as an alternative to traditional education. Mindvalley has helped me immensely in my life so I want to take this opportunity to say a huge THANK YOU!!
Vishen, I celebrate your innovative and vulnerable authentic thinking! The video is super funny but at the same time makes you scratch your head about the powerful implications of AI. I’m eager to learn more during the AI summit. Well done.

I think we have crossed the threshold . Just six months ago most AI output appeared soulless to me. But this did not. Mastering humor !
We must include ethical and responsible guardrails but can we rely on human nature and the free market to protect us from harm and to know what is real and what is AI ?
Loved it for entertainment. However, I have deep concerns about AI clones. Yours was SO realistic that if I didn’t know it was AI, I’d have thought both were you and spliced together for this little video. I noticed that even when the AI clone moved, I heard what sounded like authentic static noise through the microphone. I am open to learning, with a strong sense of skepticism at this point that I would ever take it as far as to create an AI clone. I also don’t like the idea of learning or interacting with a clone. Call me old-fashioned, I guess! I won’t be an early adopter, I shall leave that to you, and take a wait-and-see approach with this. Even the “Godfather of AI” Geoffrey Hinton has registered his danger warnings.
Hilarious! You might consider doing standup comedy with your AI avatar, ha ha ha!
Clever and entertaining, but you and your AI clone don’t seem to like each other (is this a reflection of how you feel about yourself?). Such a shame, I expect you could achieve brilliance if you collaborated with each other. If I had an AI clone I would want it to encourage me and to help us become better versions of myself.
Great and fun video! Kudos!
Tickled by your sense of humor. And I appreciate your vulnerability,
I absolutely LOVED it! This cracked me up, and I want to design my own AI clone now 😉
Vishen this is brilliant as always. And ah, please do let me know when the orgasmic manifestation quest is out.
Cheers from Paris.

PS/ Just finished the AI Quest and looking forward to the advanced AI program.
Amazing stuff Vishen.Big fan of yours.I have manifested some amazing stuff in the last year with the help of your teaching.My son is so keen on AI and this video really hyped him up in his own words
So cool! You are a very brave man Vishen.
This made me laugh so much. Fantastic!
“disgusting”, “Netflix crecimiento personal-personal growth”, “TEDtalky”: ¡JUA-JUA-JUA! TU AVATAR TE APALEA – YOUR AVATAR BEATS YOU UP – AND BLULYING YOU!!! – MAYBE The power of your legacy IS HIM!!!
Let’s hope the AI Vishen is a bit more polite than the real one.
The real Vishen thinks that Trump is wonderful and wrote a long email about it….
Er hello have we forgotten the power of independent thought?
Can you create an AI version of Trump to replace the real one? This would be a real gift to humanity!
Love it! Hilarious! I actually can’t even believe it’s AI… are you going to colour code these comments? LOL
