A 'digital twin' is a computer copy.

It's a copy of a real thing, like a car or a building.

Soon, there may be digital twins of people too.

Digital twins give information to companies.

The information can help the real thing.

So, a twin of a car might help the real car.

A digital twin of a real person might improve that person.

Sandra Wachter works at the University of Oxford.

For her, digital twins of people are just an idea.

They're from stories.

But Rob Enderle, a computer expert, doesn't agree.

Enderle thinks they'll be here by 2030.

But he knows there'll be problems.

A company could make a digital twin of a worker.

That digital twin can think.

It can work for free.

The company might prefer the digital twin.

Perhaps we aren't yet ready for digital twins of people.
