“I’m baaaaaack…!”
So… your beloved wife/husband/grandma/whoever has died and you are grieving, it’s a loss that really hurts.
Artificial Intelligence to the rescue!
See, they will re-create your loved one digitally–“digital” is always best!–from his or her surviving emails, tweets, blog posts, etc. You die, sure–but you are reborn as the sum total of your tweets!
A critic out there says this is not A-OK for someone’s mental health. He says it makes the recipient unable to move on from a posture of grief; or it could be worse. Maybe it can even birth and sustain a full-blown delusion.
He’s also afraid it might give rise to “a new religion.” (“Ain’t we got enough o’ those in New Yawk?”)
Hot dog. When they’re not erasing white people from history, AI lets you see and talk to dead people.
