cm0002The future is now
「黃家駒 Wong Ka Kui」 | (aka: 鳳凰院 凶真 Hououin Kyouma)I saw a video of a woman in China talking to an AI recreation of her child (then-deceased) through VR.
I felt so creeped out by it. Like wtf, if I die, I want my mom to remember me, not talking to a fucking AI IMPOSTER.
explodicleI’d be cool with it IFF it was a strong AI that could be free, like Alan Watts in the film Her.
If someone wants an AI companion, fine. If it’s a crazy good one, fine.
But it’s strictly predatory for it to be designed to make someone feel like it’s someone else, ESPECIALLY someone dealing with that type of grief.
You had to boot the mom out of the painting. There was no ambiguity on that one.
