AI Twins Interaction and Limitations

Hollo AI provides a platform that enables users to create AI-driven digital representations known as AI Twins. These AI Twins are designed to simulate real individuals but are not actual persons. They are computational constructs that may resemble certain behaviors, appearances, and mannerisms of the individuals they are modeled after.

  • Representation and Accuracy: It is important to understand that AI Twins are approximations and may not fully or accurately represent the real individuals they are meant to simulate. The actions, statements, and any form of interaction generated by AI Twins are based on algorithmic interpretations and should be considered artificial and for entertainment or illustrative purposes only.
  • Usage and Reliance: Users are advised against relying on interactions with AI Twins for critical decision-making or as a basis for personal, financial, medical, or legal actions. Hollo AI explicitly disclaims any responsibility for decisions made based on information or interactions with AI Twins.
  • Prohibited Creations: Consistent with ethical guidelines and to prevent misuse, the creation of AI Twins of certain categories of individuals, especially politicians and other influential public figures, is strictly prohibited. Any breach of this policy will result in immediate termination of the user’s account and may lead to further actions as deemed necessary.

By using Hollo AI, you acknowledge the limitations and agree to these terms, which aim to ensure a positive and responsible user experience. This acknowledgment is crucial for maintaining the ethical use of AI technologies and for protecting the rights and dignity of all individuals.
