AI technology is being used to create virtual versions of deceased people, allowing them to interact and hold conversations with loved ones from beyond the grave. Companies such as Here After AI, You Only Virtual, Microsoft's ChatGPT and DeepBrain AI are using this technology to generate digital avatars that can answer questions from grieving individuals and share memories from the past. However, there are ethical implications associated with using AI for this purpose. For example, it raises issues about consent and privacy both pre-and post-mortem, while also raising concerns about how much data should be collected in order to ensure accuracy. Additionally, some experts believe that artificial immortality could lead to an increase in suicide rates due to its potential for misuse.
DEEP BRAIN AI
DeepBrain AI is a conversational artificial intelligence technology company based in Seoul, South Korea and Palo Alto, California. It provides services such as the AI Human platform which allows users to create hyperrealistic virtual humans through its AI Studios and the AI Human platforms. The company has raised $44 million in a series B round led by Korea Development Bank at a post-money valuation of $1.5 billion, with plans to expand into other markets. DeepBrain AI's avatars are designed for immersive and personalized fan experiences, and they can speak any language with text to speech. They also offer Rememory, an app that restores the appearance and voice of loved ones so memories and emotions can be kept forever.
The ethical implications of using AI technology to recreate deceased loved ones are complex and controversial. Some argue that it is wrong to use AI to deepfake the deceased, while others believe that it can provide comfort and a sense of connection with those who have passed away. However, there are also concerns about the accuracy of the recreations and whether they could be used for malicious purposes. Additionally, there is a risk that the consent provided by the person mimicked (while alive) does not mean much more than a blank check.
