Someone has taken the full corpus of Matt Levine's 'Money Stuff' newsletter (2019–present) and is building an AI skill that reproduces his mental process, questions, interests, and writing style — calling it 'very promising' though unfinished. Notably, the creator says they'll keep it private because releasing an artificial proxy of a real person without consent 'seems instinctively wrong,' sparking debate over the ethics of cloning human voices with AI.
