ATLANTA, GA, September 16, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Artificial intelligence is moving faster than many entrepreneurs can keep up with—and for women already balancing businesses, brands, families, clients and an endless demand to remain visible online, the pressure to adapt can feel overwhelming.

But the founders of The Clone Conference say, "avoiding AI is no longer the answer."

Instead, women need to understand it, learn to direct it and begin treating artificial intelligence as an addition to their work team—not a replacement for themselves.

That mission is at the heart of Clone Creator Live, a free weekly live training taking place every Tuesday at 6 PM ET leading up to the conference created by Ri Michelle, widely known as "The Clone Creator," and visionary strategist and producer Jai Tanner Founder of The Lion's Den.

The weekly virtual experience, Clone Creator Live, is limited to 100 seats with no replay, creating an immediate opportunity for women entrepreneurs, coaches, consultants, creators, experts and personal brands to see firsthand how AI clones, cinematic AI content and automation can support their businesses without requiring them to constantly be in front of a camera.

The event serves as the opening chapter to a much larger movement culminating in The Clone Conference, a live, one-day AI implementation experience scheduled for October 25, 2026, in Atlanta, GA at ModeX Studio. Working alongside ModeX as a technology partner, sponsor and active collaborator will help transform the experience. Their visionary approach and steadfast support will be instrumental in bringing our vision to life. ModeX is an intricate piece of the puzzle bringing immense expertise and a shared passion for empowering creators and driving impactful community growth.

The conference will bring together just 100 women founders and move beyond simply talking about artificial intelligence. Attendees will build, install and test AI-powered content systems while they are in the room.

AI Is Changing Business. Women Cannot Afford to Watch From the Sidelines.

The explosion of generative AI has created tremendous opportunity, but it has also created fear, uncertainty and confusion.

Will AI replace jobs?

Will audiences reject AI-generated content?

Will using an AI clone make a brand feel less authentic?

And perhaps the biggest question for entrepreneurs:

Where do I even begin?

Ri Michelle and Jai Tanner believe women should not have to become technology experts overnight to remain competitive. But they do believe women must become informed enough to make AI work for them instead of allowing the technology to happen around them.

Their message is simple:

AI should not erase the woman behind the brand. It should give her more freedom to build it.

"This is not about replacing yourself with AI," is a central philosophy behind The Clone Conference. "It is about a founder finally getting to decide when she shows up."

For women who have spent years hearing that success requires constantly posting, filming, creating and staying visible, that idea represents a dramatic shift.

Ri Michelle's guiding philosophy is equally direct:

"Your visibility should not depend on your availability."

The goal is not to remove the entrepreneur from her brand. It is to build systems capable of supporting her brand when she is serving clients, running her company, traveling, caring for her family—or simply living her life.

From a Laptop to a Live Movement

The origin of Clone Creator Live began with two women looking at the same challenge from very different perspectives.

Ri Michelle had already spent months helping hundreds of women use AI clones, cinematic AI content and automation to transform how they showed up digitally.

She had built the system.

Tanner saw what could happen if that system came out from behind the computer and became a live experience.

Somewhere between Ri Michelle saying: "I like it behind this laptop."

Tanner responding: "Get dressed."

It was at that very moment Clone Creator Live was born.

The humor surrounding that exchange reflects their personalities, but the issue they are confronting is serious.

Women entrepreneurs are attempting to navigate content creation, personal branding, social media, automation, artificial intelligence and changing algorithms—while the rules seem to change almost weekly.

Trying to manually keep pace can lead to exhaustion before the business ever reaches its full potential. "The question is no longer whether AI is coming," the founders say. "It is already here. The question is whether women will understand how to use it strategically."

Ri Michelle Built the System. Jai Tanner Built the Experience.

Ri Michelle is the founder of Clone Creators Studio™ and has emerged as a leading voice in what she calls the Content Clone Era, where entrepreneurs use AI-powered visual identities to create consistent, high-quality content without being physically present for every production.

Known as The Clone Creator, Ri Michelle teaches women entrepreneurs how to build and activate Content Clones that support visibility, content production and business growth.

More than 900 women have already built a Content Clone through Ri Michelle's programs, according to information provided for The Clone Conference. The upcoming Atlanta experience is intentionally limited to another 100 women—a milestone that would bring the community to approximately 1,000 women equipped with these systems.

Jai Tanner brings the other side of the equation.

A strategist, producer and founder of Lion's Den Venture Studio, Tanner specializes in helping entrepreneurs move ideas from concept into real-world execution. Her expertise spans creative direction, concept development, production, strategic execution, public relations and live experiences.

Her philosophy behind the partnership is equally clear:

"Strategy without production is just a slide deck."

Together, the women co-own The Clone Conference, pairing Ri Michelle's AI-powered Content Clone methodology with Jai Tanner's expertise in production and immersive experience design.

The result is designed to move attendees from simply hearing about AI to actually using it.

What Women Will Learn to Build

At The Clone Conference, participants will work through an implementation process that includes content strategy aligned with their actual brand rather than generic templates; development of the clone's visual identity, voice and presence; organization of a content library capable of supporting future production; and live installation and testing of the system itself.

That distinction is important.

The founders do not want attendees leaving with another notebook filled with ideas they never implement.

They want women leaving with infrastructure.

A working system.

A clearer strategy.

And an understanding of how to use AI without surrendering the personal voice, expertise and human connection that made their brands valuable in the first place.

A Different Conversation About Women and AI

Ri Michelle and Jai Tanner ultimately want women to stop asking whether AI will make them irrelevant and start asking a different question:

How can I use this technology to become even more effective?

The answer, they believe, begins with education.

Understanding the tools.

Maintaining ownership of your voice.

Protecting your intellectual and personal brand.

And intentionally deciding what should remain human—and what technology can help carry.

Because the future of entrepreneurship will not simply belong to the people with access to artificial intelligence.

It will belong to the people who know how to direct it.

The Clone Conference intends to make sure women are in that room.
