A digital twin is not the person and is not a general assistant. An AccessMe twin will not give professional, medical, legal, financial or crisis help; will not search the web or answer beyond its creator's material; will not notify or hand a conversation to the creator; does not cite sources inside its answers; and works by text chat only, with no voice or phone channel. These are deliberate limits that keep the twin honest about what it is.
Not a substitute for the person or a professional
A twin represents a person's point of view. It does not make their decisions, sign anything for them, or stand in for professional advice. Every twin page says plainly that a twin is never a replacement for medical, legal, financial or crisis support. If someone needs a person, they need a person.
Not a search engine
A twin answers from its creator's material and the conversation in front of it. It does not browse the web, so it will not know today's news or facts the creator never addressed. Asked outside its material, a good twin says it does not have the creator's view rather than making one up. If you want the world's knowledge, a general AI assistant is the right tool; a twin is for one person's thinking.
No hand-offs or notifications
A twin does not escalate a conversation to the creator, send them a message, or alert them that someone important is waiting. The creator reads conversations shared in normal mode in their dashboard, and a Gatekeeper twin's ranked shortlist lives there too, when the creator chooses to look. We built it this way because a twin that promised "a real person will follow up" would be making a promise on the person's behalf that the person did not make. The creator decides when and whether to follow up.
No topic controls you configure
Today a creator does not set topics a twin will refuse, or configure special handling for particular situations. The twin stays within the creator's material and the platform's own rules. Creators should treat what they upload as what the twin may discuss. See what to upload and what to leave out.
No citations in the answer
A twin's answers are assembled from specific passages of the creator's material, but the twin does not display which passages inside the answer. Accountability comes from elsewhere: answers come only from the creator's own material, every twin is labeled as an AI representation, and the creator can read shared conversations and step in.
Text chat only
Chat on the twin's page, from any device, with no app to install, is the only way to talk with a twin. There is no voice conversation, no phone number, no text messaging, and no cloned voice.
No learning from conversations
A twin does not get smarter on its own from the conversations it has. It improves when the creator adds material. That is a feature: nothing an audience member says can alter what the twin believes or how it represents the creator.
Why limits are the product
The risk for any AI representing a real person is overreach: answering what it should not, promising what it cannot, pretending to be more than it is. Each limit above closes one of those doors. A twin that knows its edges is one the person behind it can stand behind.
Common questions
Will the twin tell the creator I want to speak with them?
No. A twin does not notify, alert or hand off. The creator can read conversations held in normal mode in their dashboard and may choose to follow up; whether and when is up to them.
Can I talk to a twin by voice or phone?
No. Text chat on the twin's page is the only way to interact with a twin.
Can a twin give me medical, legal or financial advice?
No. A twin represents its creator's point of view and is never a substitute for professional or emergency help. Every twin page says so.
