Now that you’ve set up your clone profile, it’s time to build the brain of your clone. This involves transferring the content from your head your knowledge, insights, and expertise into the clone’s database.
The more content you provide, the smarter and more effective your clone will be.
Step 1: Gathering Your Resources
You have a variety of resources at your disposal for building your clone’s brain. These can include books, PDFs, Word documents, MP3s, MP4 videos, YouTube videos, podcasts, and more. If it’s in a digital format, you can upload it into your clone’s brain.
For example, I’ve used 15,000 different files to create my clone. Now, don’t let that number intimidate you you don’t need to have 15,000 files. You don’t even need 1,500 or 15. You could start with just one hour-long presentation, and that could be enough to build a functional clone. The key is to start with whatever content you have that best represents your expertise.
Step 2: Uploading Content
Let’s take a look at how to upload content into your clone. In the studio of the platform I’m using, Delphi.ai, it’s as simple as clicking the “Add Content” button. The platform makes it easy to upload from a variety of sources
whether it’s YouTube, a website, your computer, Twitter, or a podcast.
For instance, if I want to upload a file directly from my computer, I just click on the appropriate option, select the file, and upload it. The platform processes it quickly, and the content becomes available for my clone to use immediately. This means that anytime someone interacts with my clone, it can draw from this newly uploaded material.
You can also upload content from other sources, like Dropbox, Google Drive, and more. I have thousands of videos from my online courses stored on Google Drive, and I was able to upload them easily into my clone’s database.
Step 3: Syncing Social Media
One of the most powerful features of modern clone platforms is the ability to sync your social media accounts. For example, my clone is synced with my YouTube channel, so every time I post a new video, the content is automatically integrated into my clone’s brain. I don’t have to manually upload or update anything new content is fed directly into the clone.
This is incredibly valuable because it ensures that your clone stays up-to-date with your latest thinking and content. Whether it’s a new podcast episode, a tweet, or a YouTube video, all of it can be synced to keep your clone’s brain current.
Step 4: Adding Social Links
In addition to syncing content, you can link your social media accounts directly to your clone’s profile. I’ve
connected my Instagram, Twitter (now X), LinkedIn, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok, and my main website, TJWalker.com. This helps your clone have a more comprehensive understanding of your online presence and keeps it informed with the most recent content.
Step 5: Suggesting Initial Content
If you’re just getting started and don’t have a large content library, you can begin by recording a simple conversation. For example, you might call a friend, colleague, or a client on Zoom, record the conversation, and upload it into your clone. Discuss common questions that people ask you in your professional life this is often the best place to start. Even a single conversation can provide a rich source of content for your clone to learn from.
The Importance of Content
Remember, the content you upload is the core of your clone’s brain. This is what allows it to think, respond, and interact in a way that represents you. The more relevant and well-organized your content, the more effective your clone will be at sharing your knowledge and expertise with others.
Start Uploading Now
Whatever platform you’re using, go ahead and start uploading your content. If you don’t have a lot of content, that’s okay start with what you have. Even if it’s just one presentation, a single podcast episode, or a conversation you record today, every bit of content you add will help your clone become a more powerful tool for communication.
