On Copyright and ‘Twinning’

One pressing question revolves around the legality of ‘twinning’ living personalities. Rest assured, we’ve delved into this with our legal counsel and Apple’s review team. The consensus is that “personality” doesn’t fall under the purview of copyright laws. While it’s ethically unsound to use copyrighted text without permission, creating a persona based on text analysis is legally permissible. This concept isn’t new; it’s similar to how targeted marketing campaigns operate on social media platforms.

At TwinChat, we’re committed to balancing technological innovation with ethical integrity. You can learn more about our stance on copyright protection from our Medium articles:

Additionally, we’ve authored a book, “I, AI: Cyberpunks 2023”. It dives deep into these issues and has been rigorously reviewed:
