Show HN: Sam Altman video clone trained on 100h of Sam's startup content

The idea: Make Sam Altman your personal startup mentor, always available to go deep on your startup and give you targeted advice.

Our larger goal is to develop indistinguishable intelligent clones (IIC) so everyone can meet. We started with Sam Altman because we wanted to meet him as founders ourselves.

We are reaching out to personalities directly for permission. Our plan with Sam is to provide something helpful to early stage founders in private beta so we can go to him with validation.

Long term we see IIC as a world-changing event on the scale of AGI, but with natural interaction and greater connection between people. Anyone else thinking about IIC?

Very cool app, if anyone wants to try the FOSS alternative to this check out Ragdoll Studio - https://github.com/bennyschmidt/ragdoll-studio

Create anyone you want based on a list of documents (URLs), chat with them, have them create images in their style, tell stories, etc.

(runs open models with Ollama, Stable Diffusion, etc. not OpenAI)

I would be curious what Sam Altmans people make, you can share characters here: https://ragdoll-studio.vercel.app
