Artificial Intelligence Creates Virtual Versions of Your Deceased Loved Ones

The advancements of AI in bringing back your dead loved ones cannot understated. The technology has somewhat become a messenger for the dead ones, enabling the deceased individuals to interact and hold conversations with others from beyond the grave. Several tech and AI development companies, including a California-based company called HereAfterAI, are using cutting-edge algorithms that empower AI chatbots and voice assistants to create virtual versions of actual humans.

The idea behind investing in technology that will enable users to talk to their dead basically feeds on the idea of cloning human thought patterns. Infact, the whole idea behind creating an efficient artificial intelligence machine is to be able to perfectly perform tasks and think the way humans generally do. HereAfterAI will offer you a mobile application that uses photographs, video interviews, and voice recordings to create interactive avatars that resemble your dead loved ones and create interactive avatars that are capable of a conversation.

These types of AI systems are mainly becoming popular because it gives emotional and psychological closure and peace to humans. But are they really ethical? If we dig deep into the matter, experts are not quite happy with these innovations. Ethical controversies surrounding these innovations have been luring around since Amazon's Alexa started imitating the voice of your deceased family members. The use of this technology to replicate special memories and beliefs is quite thoughtful, but feeding off of people's weaknesses highlights the technology's toxic ethical issues.
