Previously, companies such as Character.ai have tried this. Meta has created also chatbots based on personalities like TikTok star Charli D’Amelio, YouTube phenomenon Mr. Beast, Snoop Dogg, Tom Brady, and Paris Hilton.

If reports are to be believed, this project is headed by Ryan Germick, who is known for his work on Google Doodles, along with a team of ten. What remains unclear is which celebrities Google will choose to go with. Also, it is likely that instead of rolling this feature out for a wider audience, Google will make this available on Google Labs.
