The ChimaBot Experiment is Just the Beginning
When Georgia Power’s Chima Chijioke went head-to-head with his AI-powered digital twin, the crowd had questions about use cases, ethics, and more.
Now, the U2030 and Avertra are extending the experiment.
Next up: Digital leadership twins inspired by LADWP’s Janisse Quiñones and Xcel Energy’s Jody Allison.
