“The Daily Show” joked that Mark Zuckerberg’s new AI cloning experiment will finally allow the billionaire tech CEO to look like a human.
“It’s unbelievable. After decades of technological advances, we’ve finally invented a way to make Mark Zuckerberg look real,” The Daily Show correspondent Grace Kulenschmidt said Thursday while analyzing the latest developments in technology. “And we capture all of his signature facial expressions: angry, happy, fearful and, of course, sunscreen.”
That’s true, Zuckerberg has actually trained AI clones to mirror his image, voice, mannerisms and tone, and is working to have his 3D avatars take over his interactions with staff.
In other news, Kuhlenschmidt also shared some of the biggest technology trends and revelations of 2026, including the rise of a phenomenon called “tech neck,” which is the long-term effect of how we look at our devices.

“If you have a problem with technology necks, call me a throat goat,” Mr. Kulenschmidt joked. “I love it. Now when I breathe, it sounds like a pug. It’s so cool.”
She went on to say that she considers tech necks to be “badges of honor.”
“It’s like a boxer’s cauliflower ears or a hot guy’s bulging backside,” Kulenschmidt said. “It shows you’ve made an effort. And as far as we know, this is the next step in evolution. First humans evolved to walk upright. Now we evolved to walk around hunched over, watching that video of Lenny Kravitz ripping his pants over and over again.”
The solution to the technology problem is tummy time, Kuhlenschmidt explained, and she said she’s really looking forward to it.
“Honestly, when I first heard that the cure for high-tech neck is tummy time, I thought, ‘Wait a minute, I’m saving that for my wedding night.’ Just kidding, I haven’t been a virgin for weeks.”
