Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear.  I’m Fred Fishkin.     Who gets to authorize an AI version of you?   Authentic Interactins…the company behind StoryFile and Lookalike.com…has been creating AI versions of holocaust survivors,  veterans, William Shatner….and Kara Swisher, for a recent series on CNN.  And the company is also leading the way in pushing for standards, a Digital Likeness Directive,  to give people control over AI recreations, even after they are gone.
