    Looking at the downvotes, remember upvoting an article ≠ an endorsement of the shitty technology being discussed in the article.

    We shit on the technology in the comments, and upvote it so more of us can read about it and shit on it.

      Maybe they like the technology and that’s why they’re downvoting the story.

      I just can’t upvote this trash story even though you are correct about the usual reason for upvoting posts even when the subject matter is terrible.

      The AI moralises on the importance that not everyone gets to be old and then forgives the man who killed him. Fuck that garbage.

      Since you know it was the wife who pushed for it.

      Technology isn’t inherently good or evil. It entirely depends on the person using it. In this case, it had a very positive impact on everybody involved.

          This. I don’t see how it’s any different from making an ‘ai video’ about a murder victim thanking his murderer for easing his pain, in order to ‘make people feel better’ after a rich perpretrator games the system and is acquitted via dubious means. It’s blatant manipulation.

          What makes it immoral? Nobody was hurt in any way, physically, emotionally, or financially. They disclosed the use of AI before showing the video. It even helped the perpetrator get a smaller sentence (IMO prison as a concept is inhumane, so less prison time is morally right).

              Oh, I agree that it’s creepy and something that could very easily be abused. But in this case, it seems to have been the right move. Whether the dead brother would have approved, we’ll never know. But the living sister seemed to earnestly believe he would have, and that’s enough for me.
