Why I built my AI Twin.
A strange, discomfiting feeling sometimes crawls over my skin. My bones whisper at me — I’m in the wrong town, the wrong room, the wrong body. From the very first time I discovered the joys of singing, I knew who I was. A musician, a creative soul. But when I look in the mirror today,…
