Digital Human Twin - Bryant McGill

# Digital Human Twin **Domain:** Digital Afterlife / Digital Twins / Human Modeling **Doc Type:** Canonical Concept **Maturity:** Developed **Evidence / Concept Status:** Established technical term; future continuity relevance ## Definition A **Digital Human Twin** is a computational representation of a specific human integrating data and models to represent biological, behavioral, physiological, or other person-specific state over time. ## Continuity Significance As fidelity, persistence, and agency increase, governance must distinguish a clinical representation from a posthumous replica, successor, or continuant. ## Existing Architecture / Evidence European and academic initiatives are building human-twin infrastructure, while policy-facing research asks what happens to such twins after death. ## Evidentiary Boundary / Red-Team Note A digital twin is not automatically the person it represents. ## Related Ontology [[wiki/Virtual Human Twin|Virtual Human Twin]] · [[wiki/Posthumous Digital Human Twin|Posthumous Digital Human Twin]] · [[wiki/Operational Representation|Operational Representation]] · [[wiki/Personal Authoritative State|Personal Authoritative State]] · [[wiki/Digital Afterlife|Digital Afterlife]] ## Sources / Provenance - https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/policies/virtual-human-twins  ## Deep-Time Continuity Interface This node is audited through [[wiki/Deep Time Continuity|Deep Time Continuity]] for future control-surface conversion, ontological drift, succession, irreversibility, due process, and resource incidence. The backlink records analytical relevance; it does not establish continuity intent in the present rule or institution.   ## ASI and RSI Timeline Research Routes This node is connected to the developed research ontology for [[research/ASI and RSI Timeline Research Moonshots|ASI and RSI Timeline Research Moonshots]]. The route distinguishes the source transcript from canonical wiki objects and lets later Reminders inherit an already connected conceptual graph. - **Master ontology:** [[ASI and RSI Timeline Ontology]] - **Generative Humans, Continuity, and Presence:** [[ASI and RSI Timeline Ontology#Generative Humans, Continuity, and Presence|complete route]] · [[Tavus]] · [[Griffin]] · [[Video Turing Test]] · [[Human Interaction Model]] · [[Full-Duplex AI Conversation]] · [[NVIDIA Video Full-Duplex Benchmark]] · [[Synthetic Presence]] · [[Real-Time Interactive Avatar]]
