Digital twins: The future of superwork?

Are AI replicas making us more productive or just more replaceable?

Could a digital twin make you into a 'superworker'? Richard Skellett, chief analyst at Bloor Research, thinks so. He has been building his own AI twin for three years and now it's helping him manage work and personal life.


The technology is not just limited to Skellett; it’s being rolled out across the 50-strong team of Bloor Research. Other companies are already testing similar technology, with plans to make it widely available later this year. Analysts predict that digital replicas of knowledge workers will soon be mainstream.


However, there are still many questions around governance and ownership. Should individuals own their AI digital twin or does the company have a claim? And how should compensation work in an era where employees can produce more with an AI assistant?


Josh Bersin, founder of The Josh Bersin Company, believes that AI is transforming workers into 'superworkers'. His own use of a digital twin has reduced his need for new hires and increased staff bonuses. But others caution about the potential downsides and legal challenges in defining ownership.


The future of work is certainly looking different with these technological advancements, but how it all plays out remains to be seen.
