Luka Doncic's next big shot: releasing his metahuman

For years, Luka Doncic has looked for ways to connect with fans on a deeper level than the average exchanges on social media. Now, he's ready to unveil his solution: a metahuman.

While technological advances haven't been able to completely clone the 6-foot-7 guard, developers at Epic AI believe Doncic's virtual doppelgänger, Luk.AI, may be the next best thing. Epic describes Luk.AI as a "self-learning artificial intelligence capable of emotional, physical, and technological growth."

The virtual version of Luka, created with Unreal Engine 5 technology, will be able to interact, exercise, play and converse with fans via TikTok, which will be his home.
