Should an AI copy of you help decide if you live or die?

Under no circumstances.

An "AI copy" of me shouldn't exist in the first place, but if it did it should have zero role in any decisions about my life or death. Important decisions like that should be made by myself or if I'm not capable of decision-making, then by those who love me, not by a machine.

This is the "should I live" detector script. Maybe this part should be on my tombstone:

cat >> ~/should-i-live.txt; chmod u+x ~/should-i-live.txt

   #!/bin/bash
   echo "yes"

Ai copies resemble people in all ways except the ones that matter.

They can answer in ways that would fool someone who doesn’t know the person. They cannot faithfully reconstruct a person’s thought process.
