India, April 28 -- Customers Bank CEO Sam Sidhu held a conference call to discuss first-quarter results with analysts on Friday. Halfway through the call, he revealed that he had not actually spoken at all. Instead, his speech had been delivered by an AI clone.

"The prepared remarks you heard on my behalf today were delivered by my AI clone, not read by me," Sidhu said, according to a CNBC report. The CEO of Customers Bank called it a potential first for a public company earnings call.

Sidhu said the point of letting an AI clone handle the earnings call was to highlight the adoption of artificial intelligence at the bank, which recently entered into a partnership with OpenAI.
