This is your opportunity to ask questions. No question too simple or too silly.

A lifetime? More like 2 years. The only thing we can't do today (with good results) is the interactive AI avatar or real time video.
The other reply is right, you don’t have anywhere near enough data on Grandma (unless she’s a famous celebrity with a 40+ year TV career) to train an AI that ‘feels’ like it’s her. She’ll make an infinity of hand movements, facial tics, use certain words and the illusion will be instantly destroyed.
It’s as much about learning the things she would never say as it is appearing like an authentic old person. For it to be fully authentic those Meta glasses will have to catch on so we can record dozens of hours of mundane interactions with others. I would estimate that a few thousand hours would be enough for a good facsimile.

Nobody's storing their data rigorously enough to have a compelling product. The first generation of kids who are going to be able to digitally replicated were born in 2018, with auto-populating albums of videos and photos in cloud services. The adults aren't recording enough of their real thoughts and opinions.
Maybe me going through a couple days of interviews with an AI from my deathbed will be enough? But it'll be a pretty shallow copy.
