[ExI] Storyville: Eternal You

[BillK]

I've just watched on BBC TV the documentary "Eternal You" about
creating digital copies of people that have died. The bereaved people
seemed to find comfort in talking to the deceased. But the ethics of
the companies creating these AI personas seem to be very dubious.
Talking to the dead raises profound existential questions. These LLMs
can be unpredicable in what they say in such a personal situation.
It is a very moving and important review of AI developments.

Short review and video clip here:

In the UK, it is available to watch on the BBC iPlayer system and may
be available in other countries.
